It seems that autumn is starting to come to our country, and this, decrease in temperatures in almost the entire peninsula. Thermometers begin to reflect slightly more “normal” values for the time of year we find ourselves.
Therefore, we started to think that soon we would have to heat our homes, which is costing our economy. According to the latest report by the Organization of Consumers and Users (OCU), every Spanish household You will spend an average of 750 Euros per year for heating. That’s a really high number, and the agency warns the bill could be higher if energy prices continue to rise as they have so far.
However, each home’s heating systems need to be evaluated in order to make a better estimate for each home.
The cheapest systems to heat your home
this heat pumps and biomass stoves are systems that the less you spend in heating. OCU calculated the annual cost of heating a 90-square-foot house in a cold area, and these two systems were the most effective.
Biomass stoves or boilers are those that make use of them. organic residues from pruning, pellets or olive pits while dissipating hot air boilers heat a water circuit. The main advantages of these systems are that they are sustainable and have no CO2 emissions. In addition, with biomass boilers, approximately 545 Euro per year for heating. On the other hand, your house needs to have a smoke evacuation duct to the outside and they need frequent maintenance by having to remove the ashes and clean the combustion chamber.
When it comes to heat pumps, we are talking about air-conditioning compartments or air-water aerothermal systems and they are characterized by exchanging energy with the outside to cool the house.
Despite the price of electricity, the Organization estimates that you can spend approximately. 455 Euro per year in heating You can also cool your home in summer. On the other hand, if possible you will need to install an outdoor unit and you will have to make a serious investment.
The most expensive systems for heating your home
The OCU initiates an alert to houses heated via the heating system. accumulators and electric radiators: “this year they will pay twice as much for heating”. And although you need a low initial investment to install them, you can pay very dearly on the electricity bill.
The organization estimates that at the price of electricity, conventional radiators can consume approximately. 1,255 Euro per yearcost in accumulators approx. 1,046 euros.
