Ducted gas heating provides you with a cosy warmth and consists of a heating unit connected to a number of outlets by a system of ducts.
The position of the heating unit depends on your house and may be placed outside, under the floor or in the roof cavity. The outlets and ducts are then strategically placed throughout your home, either in the floor or ceiling.
BENEFITS
Braemar natural ducted gas heating, provides you with the ultimate in safety, reliability and energy efficiency.
- Cheaper to run and reaches desired temperatures much faster when compared to reverse cycle heating.
- Flexible zoning options provide complete control over your individual comfort needs by heating only parts of the house in use which can save you up to an extra 60% on running costs*.
- Flexible installation for all types of homes and roof spaces.
- Ducted gas heating won’t dry your skin and eyes. It’s a different kind of cosy warmth.
- Better for the environment with low CO² emissions.
*Actual savings achieved will depend on the number of zones and controls installed, actual zone usage pattern, temperature settings, outside temperature, house size and room layout, house insulation, number of outlets, zone system design. Zoning savings are based on: · A range of assumed zone configurations, usage profiles and zone set-temperatures, with energy consumption reduced due to not heating the whole house all of the time. · Individual zone temperature control (a single MagIQtouch® controller in combination with air temperatures sensors, or multiple MagIQtouch® controllers).

Frequently Asked Questions
Ducted Gas Heating FAQs
What is a ducted gas heater?
A ducted gas heater is a type of heating system that uses natural gas to generate heat and distribute it throughout a building via a network of ducts. It typically consists of a central heating unit, ductwork, vents, and a thermostat.
How does a ducted gas heater work?
A ducted gas heater operates by burning natural gas to produce heat. The heat is then transferred to the air, which is distributed through the ducts and released into different rooms or areas of the building via vents.
Are ducted gas heaters energy-efficient?
Ducted gas heaters are generally considered energy-efficient compared to other heating systems, such as electric heaters. Gas is often cheaper than electricity, making gas heaters a cost-effective choice for heating large spaces.
Is natural gas readily available in South Africa?
Yes, natural gas is available in certain areas of South Africa. It's important to check with your local gas supplier to determine if natural gas is accessible in your location.
Are ducted gas heaters safe?
