Best Heating Solutions for Christchurch Homes

Several heating options are available to suit different homes and lifestyles. While Simply Heat offers a range of heating solutions, here’s a general overview of common choices:

Heat Pumps

One of the most energy-efficient heating methods, heat pumps provide quick and reliable warmth while offering cooling in summer. Ducted heat pump systems ensure whole-home heating with minimal visual impact.

Ventilation Systems

Effective ventilation plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy, comfortable home. A properly ventilated home improves indoor air quality, helps control moisture, and reduces the risk of condensation and mould. 

Wood Burners

Traditional but effective, wood burners offer strong heating capacity, making them ideal for larger spaces or rural properties where firewood is accessible.

Key Considerations for Heating Your Home in Christchurch

When choosing a heating solution for your home, consider factors such as insulation, home size, and layout. Here are some essential aspects to keep in mind:

Insulation First

A well-insulated home retains heat better, reducing energy consumption and heating costs. Ensure your home has quality insulation in ceilings, walls, and floors.

Heat Distribution

Homes with multiple rooms or open-plan living spaces benefit from heating systems that provide consistent warmth throughout.

Energy Efficiency

Opting for energy-efficient heating solutions can help lower power bills while maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature.

Quiet and Unobtrusive Systems

Many homeowners prefer heating options that are both discreet and quiet for a seamless home environment.

"Mick, Luke, and the team were a great choice for us. Communication was excellent - during the quoting process by listening to what we were wanting, and also throughout the job as it progressed. The new ducted system with zone control is great, and we're very happy in a much warmer house. Pricing for the job was competitive, the team worked quickly and carefully, and they also arranged a painter to touch up a couple of chips in the ceiling."

"We had Simply Heat install a Fujitsu ducted heat pump in our Christchurch home and couldn't be happier. The whole team was professional, tidy, and explained everything clearly. The zone control makes a huge difference — every room is just how we like it. If you're looking for reliable home heating in Christchurch, I’d definitely recommend these guys!"

"Over the moon with the team's incredible service: they go above and beyond. I had a ducted heat pump system and then an electric fireplace installed this year. I received great advice from Michael and Luke. They are extremely professional, friendly, helpful and they really listen to their customers' needs. Everything was ready and done on time, and the house was left in a pristine state, which has become quite rare those days. I warmly recommend Simply Heat.."
