DUCTED GAS HEATING SYSTEMS

Ducted Gas Heating Systems

Ducted Gas Heating Systems offer a cost-effective solution to efficiently heat multiple areas and are often the most economical choice for warming an entire house. They are available in various sizes to accommodate different home sizes.

As a general guideline, 1kW of heating capacity can effectively warm 1 square meter of your home. For instance, a 20-square house would typically require a 20kW unit.

Recent advancements have significantly improved the efficiency of ducted gas heating systems, which are now rated for their performance. Ratings range from 2 stars (standard efficiency) to 3, 4 stars (mid efficiency), and go up to 4, 5, and 5 ½ stars (high efficiency).

For larger homes, zoning is recommended to further reduce operational costs. Zoning allows specific areas (zones) of the house to be turned off, such as bedrooms during the day or formal living areas independently from other zones.

We provide installation services for a variety of reputable brands, including Stadt Heaters Melbourne, Lennox heaters, Pyrox heaters, and more. These heaters can be installed in either the ceiling or under the floor, provided there is adequate clearance. Additionally, a ducted heater can be equipped with a timer controller, enabling you to set the system to activate and deactivate at different times and temperatures throughout the week.

Warranty Details:

  • Three years of parts and labor
  • Six years on installation
  • Ten years on the heat exchangers and burners

Ducted Split Systems

Ducted Split Systems are designed to efficiently cool and heat multiple areas. Different sizes are available to suit various room dimensions. These systems are typically zoned to minimize installation and operational costs, ensuring that only specific parts of the house are in use simultaneously. A common setup includes a day zone for living areas and a night zone for bedrooms.

For sizing a zoned system (half on and half off), a rough guideline is as follows:

  • Small home/unit (10-14 squares): 5-7kW
  • Medium home (15-24 squares): 7-12kW
  • Large home (25-35+ squares): 13-25kW

Price Range:

Prices typically range from $4,490 to $14,490+ (inclusive of installation and GST).

Warranty Information:

  • Five years of parts and labor
  • Six years of installation”

HYDRONIC HEATING

Hydronic Heating: The Premier Central Heating Solution

Hydronic heating is recognized as the top choice for central heating systems, delivering efficient and personalized room heating through radiant and convection heat. Radiated heat gently emanates from the surface of radiators, effectively warming people, furnishings, and walls in each room.

In residences with concrete slab floors and flat roofs, Hydronic heating emerges as the ideal solution due to space constraints and economic considerations, making it a smart choice.

The installation of a Hydronic heating system entails positioning a Gas Furnace outside the house, resembling a conventional instant hot water system. This furnace is linked through insulated plastic piping to Radiant Panels, which are strategically mounted on the walls in rooms requiring heating.

Hydronic heating offers a diverse range of indoor radiant panel styles, featuring various dimensions tailored to meet the heating load requirements and the desired aesthetics of each room. Panel heights typically range from 300, 500, 600, to 900mm, while lengths vary from 300 to 3000mm.

For bathrooms, Towel Rail Panels are a popular choice, available in both white and chrome finishes. Unique designer Radiator Panels are favored by those looking to make a style statement with their heating, particularly architects and modern design enthusiasts.

The system is custom-designed to align with the specific heat load and the preferred style or finish of your home. If additional rooms are added, integrating extra panels into the existing system is a seamless process.

Control is at your fingertips:

A Room Thermostat is usually installed in the main living area of your home, overseeing the system’s operation and maintaining the desired temperature in the central living zone. Each bedroom and study area typically features individual thermostatic controls on the supply valve at the base of the Wall Mounted Radiator Panel. These user-friendly dials allow you to set a precise temperature in each room, offering comprehensive zoning capabilities.

At Plumbers Now, we uphold a commitment to transparent, fixed-rate pricing for all our plumbing services, eliminating the uncertainty of hourly rates. When you choose us, you always know the precise cost of our services.

Pricing:

For an estimated installation cost of Hydronic heating, each wall-mounted panel is priced at approximately $1,200 (inclusive of GST and boiler installation). For example, in a 190m2 or 20-square house, you may require approximately 8 to 10 panels, resulting in a total installation cost ranging from around $9,600 to $12,000, inclusive of GST.
