Is it possible to heat up without radiators? Surely there are valid alternatives in a time of rampant energy crisis due to the explosion of the war in Ukraine. Let’s explore some interesting possibilities.
Right now families in so many countries around the world are struggling with bills. The energy crisis forces us to use our ingenuity to try to get out of a situation that is gradually becoming more and more complex and delicate.
We have always been used to using radiators to regulate the temperature of our rooms. When outside perhaps it drops below zero degrees Celsius, indoors you can also stay warm at twenty. In the past, raise your hand who hasn’t enjoyed a winter at home in short sleeves thanks to the heat of the radiators.
Today, however, this choice becomes a mere utopia, because energy has increased so much that it becomes unthinkable to be able to afford certain disbursements. And this is how it becomes important to find alternative solutions to not catch cold and at the same time not to skyrocket the gas bill. Let’s find out closely together some interesting and convenient alternative solutions for the wallet and for our health.
Alternative sources to heat us up, goodbye to radiators
Heating without radiators is possible and those who live in mountain villages know it well, where it is very cold and there are not exactly this type of equipment in the houses. Surely the most banal advice is to dress better, cover up more, perhaps even without finding ourselves having problems wearing a heavier sweater or fleece.
The second alternative is given by wood or pellet stoves, even if in this second case the price of pellets has risen a lot for the same reason that we have seen the electricity bills increase. This is a solution even if it should be specified that it is not the only possibility.
Another choice is that linked to the use of thermal insulation. In this case it will be important to find ways to avoid drafts and perhaps if we replace a window that is no longer able to keep out the cold, we will be able to save significantly even in the coming winters.
Then there is the possibility of using electricity and therefore electric stoves or the heat pumps present in the air conditioners. Sunlight is also an important possibility because it can allow us to heat the house in the hottest moments and then try to keep that heat thanks to the presence of carpets or curtains.
