Discover the best alternatives to natural gas

More and more people are looking for different options to heat their homes without having to resort to natural gas. Although this is still one of the most common systems in Europe, many people are looking for other options that do not use fossil fuels and are more economical. If you are also looking for an alternative to natural gas, in this post, we will show you some choices that are more cost-efficient, environmentally-friendly and, above all, very efficient.

Heat pumps

Heat pumps are integral HVAC systems that provide cooling in summer, heating in winter and domestic hot water (DHW) all year long. Through a closed thermodynamic cycle, they transfer heat from one place to another, regulating the temperature of the rooms in your home or office. To heat the house, they transport the heat from the outside to the inside. When the homeowners want to cool it, they extract the heat from the inside and expel it to the outside. All this is done using renewable energy sources, capturing heat from earth or the ambient air.

There are two types of heat pumps. On the one hand, there is the ground-source heat pump, whose energy source is the heat from the earth. On the other hand, there is the air-source heat pump, which extracts energy from the ambient air. Both pumps are highly efficient, generate five times more energy than the energy they consume. They also are an environmentally friendly energy source, as they use clean, renewable energy sources and emit hardly any CO₂ to the ozone layer. In addition, they are a cost-efficient HVAC systems, as they consume minimal electricity, which allows the consumer to have considerable savings in the electricity bill. Although the initial investment for the installation of heat pumps is high, you will see the return on investment in a short time.

Heat pumps have many advantages, which is why more and more people are deciding to install them. They are very safe air conditioning systems, do not require regular checks and are very easy to maintain. They are also very durable and take up very little space.

Biomass stoves

Biomass stoves are highly efficient heating systems that offer you high guarantees and a unique comfort in your home. At Ecoforest, we have two types of stoves that are differentiated by the type of fuel they use: pellet stoves and wood stoves.
Pellet stoves use a natural fuel called pellets. It is an environmentally friendly source of energy, which is also much cheaper than oil or natural gas. Pellets are an excellent fuel, as they have a high calorific value and have a long lifespan.

Pellet stoves have many advantages as they take up very little space at home, they generate hardly any polluting fumes and, in the case of the Ecoforest pellet stoves, they have exceptional designs that match any type of home design. Pellet stoves are, without any doubt, safe and durable heating systems that provide warmth and comfort.

Wood-burning stoves are highly efficient heating systems that bring warmth to the home on the coldest days. These stoves are powered by wood, an environmentally friendly energy source made from a biodegradable material that emits very little CO₂ into the ozone layer. Wood-burning stoves are also very safe and durable systems that are easy to maintain and do not take up much space.

Both pellet stoves and wood-burning stoves from Ecoforest are highly efficient. But they also offer a variety of designs that adapt to the style of any home. In addition to their efficiency, they stand out for their exquisite designs and comfortable sizes.
