There are many new and beaytiful accessories available to uplift your home.
Whatever kind of heating it is you have installed in your home there are many modern heating accessories and appliances you can add to the current system to modernise and augment the efficiency.

Firstly it is important to as far a possible insulate your house. The first place to start is the loft. Ensure that you have a blanket of fibre glass insulating wool right across the ceilings. While you are about it you must remember to lag all pipes. The Hot water pipes need to be lagged to reduce heat loss and the cold water to prevent freezing up. (Up to now cold water pipes running in the loft would get enough heat from the house below to stop freezing. With the rock wool insulation this is no longer the case and the loft, above the insulation will drop to pretty much the outside temperature.

The next is of course double glazing. The PVC double glazing panels are freely available and although costly initially mortgage providers will happily lend for this addition as it dramatically increases the value of the home and the saving in energy bills will more than compensate within a very few years.

Now let us look at the bathroom. Traditional bathrooms had an unattractive radiator and that was just about it. Many people bought racks so that they could hang their washed underwear and pantyhose over the bath which not only looks untidy but often made use of the bath difficult.

Nowadays there are chromium plated hot drying racks to replace these radiators which means that with one simple purchase the entire heating arrangement in the bathroom could be revolutionised

In addition there are now lots of different designer radiators that could easily replace the incredibly ugly style monstrosities that were the order of the day when many of the houses in Britain were built. Not only will they look better but will be far more efficient in distributing the heat around the home. One has to decide on the look that you want but the modern radiators can be quite attractive.

Harking back to the cave man days as well as man's inbuilt love of pyrotechnics there is nothing quite like watching a flaming fire. Sadly because of the pollution from the smoke open fireplaces are no longer allowed in any urban space in the UK. If you live on a farm that is a different matter but for the most people in the UK are urban dwellers but we would still like to see something burning.

There are plenty of options with fireplaces and stoves which burn either gas or oil, heating ceramic bricks which effectively radiate heat as well as electric fires that give off a plasma appearance of burning. The elegant placement of a fire in the living room will truly augment the feeling of warmth and well being.

These and many other modern accessories will easily and inexpensively replace the old fashioned and inefficient units around your home to revolutionise the appearance.
