Forced-air heating

Notes:

• Forced-air heating distributes air through ducts and vents, depositing them into a heating and cooling unit. Heated air is pushed or pulled from your home, depending on whether you have the heat or air conditioning turned on.
• These systems are highly energy-efficient, using affordable, eco-friendly natural gas. Forced-air systems are also quick, cost-effective, reliable, and easy to install.
• However, you should be wary of their potential risks: these systems pump not only air, but also contaminants through the home. Dust, allergens, and mold have easy access to your pipework. These systems are also noisy and prone to leaking, and they often have problems with regulating temperatures from room to room.

Baseboard heaters

Notes:

• Baseboard heaters sit at floor level or a few inches above it. Controlled on a room-by-room basis, baseboard heaters come in several varieties, including portable versions. If you’re looking for a reliable method of supplement heat, they’re some of the best options available.
• Like solar and radiant heating, baseboard heaters will save you money on your energy bills because they use minimal electricity. They’re ideal for basements and garages, which are notoriously difficult to keep warm.
• They offer similar conveniences to forced air, and in most categories, they outrank it in terms of efficiency. To boost the effectiveness of your heaters, keep them clean, calibrate them as needed, and choose top-notch materials such as galvanized steel for their covers.

Solar heating

Notes:

• Solar heating harnesses sunlight, transforming its power into usable energy. If you’re conscious of your carbon footprint, it’s a great source of clean, renewable energy.
• There are two types of solar heating: passive and active, with the latter having better reliability. Active heating systems collect sunlight and convert it to heat. The heat is transferred to a storage tank, where it can be used or stockpiled for later use.
• Solar energy is green and low-maintenance, and it reduces your electricity bills—which, over time, makes up for its lofty startup costs.

Radiant heating

Notes:

• Radiant heating is another efficient way to heat a house. If you’re tired of freezing-cold floors and freezing-cold toes, it’s an optimal choice. Radiant heating systems circulate heat directly through the floorboards or, alternatively, through panels built into the ceiling or wall.
• The system uses minimal electricity, which makes it cost-effective. It’s also allergen-free. Unlike forced air systems, it doesn’t distribute pollen, dust, or mold.
