Why it?s vital to heat your home.

If it’s cold inside your house it can be detrimental for your health & lifestyle.

With winters getting colder here in Devon life can become unpleasant at times and we should be entitled to come home to a warm & cozy atmosphere after a hard day at work. A chilly, under-heated house is not what you want & unwelcoming at best. The good news is this can be easily avoided.

• Blood & heart rates can also be affected when exposed to poor temperatures due to poorly heated homes. Arteries constrict, blood pressure and heart rate will increase which is not good for those already suffering from heart conditions.
