Optimising Your Durham Home Heating: Simple Control Upgrades for a Cosier Winter
Is your central heating system stuck in the past? Do you find yourself constantly fiddling with the thermostat, trying to get the temperature just right? At Preferred Gas, we understand how frustrating an inefficient heating system can be. That's why we offer comprehensive heating control upgrade services across Durham (DH postcodes) and the surrounding areas, including Chester-le-Street, Consett and Stanley. We don't just install new gadgets; we provide tailored solutions to make your home heating work better for you. We pride ourselves on reliable service and our experienced team are here to help.
Beyond the Basic Thermostat: Unlocking the Potential of Your Heating System
Upgrading your heating controls isn't just about convenience; it's about saving money and improving your home's energy efficiency. Think about it: an old-fashioned thermostat simply switches the heating on or off based on a single temperature reading. Modern smart controls, on the other hand, offer a wealth of possibilities. We're talking about zoned heating (heating different rooms to different temperatures), programmable schedules that adapt to your lifestyle, and even remote control from your smartphone.

Zoned Heating: Heating Only Where You Need It
Why heat the spare bedroom when it's not being used? Zoned heating allows you to divide your home into different heating zones, each with its own temperature control. This is particularly beneficial for larger homes or properties with rooms that are used at different times of the day. We can install additional thermostats and smart radiator valves (TRVs) to create a zoned system that maximises energy efficiency and minimises wasted heat.

Smart Radiator Valves (TRVs): Fine-Tuning Your Room Temperatures
TRVs are a simple but effective way to improve your heating control.

We can supply and fit a range of TRVs, including smart versions that can be controlled remotely via your smartphone.
