Gas Ducted Heating – How It Works
A ducted heating system is an air conditioning system that uses ductwork inside the roof cavity or under the floor to distribute warm air throughout the house. It comprises of a single heating unit. This heating unit is placed either inside your ceiling or under your floor, and delivers heat to your home via ductwork that is strategically placed throughout your home, to ensure maximum heating efficiency. The Braemar type of Heating Systems use an electronic heat exchanger to provide heat, this means that a pilot light is not required so it will save you having to re-light it every winter!
Ducted Heating Systems use a ‘Return Air’ Grill which recycles the air in your house, so that the heat is kept inside your home.
The Braemar type of Ducted Heaters are extremely efficient, rated at 3.7 (TH3* Series), 4.7 (TH4 Series) or 5.7 (TH5* Series) Stars!

A ducted heating system has the ability to be ‘Zoned’. A zone allows you to turn off certain areas of the system when not in use, in order to save power and running costs. A zone can be your bedroom areas, living room, bathroom or any combination of rooms that you desire!
In order to be able to use your zones,you need to have a ‘Common Zone’ on your system. This common zone is an area that is ‘always on’, to be able to prevent any damage to the heating unit if all the zones are accidently turned off.
