As a nation that loves renovation shows and weekend trips to hardware stores – especially those with a barbeque out the front – buyers and sellers are often considering what renovations would benefit them, and add value to their property when it comes to resale.
One great way to increase the value of your property is the installation and maintenance of gas ducted heating.
Much like other renovations, this adds value because the upfront effort and cost of installation can deter people from making the change themselves. Say there is already a wall heater installed, the effort and money involved in upgrading to ducted gas heating would involve taking that from the wall, the parts within, disposing of or reselling the parts, and repairing the wall before adding on the cost of installing a new system throughout. The same can be said for a split system.
But once that gas ducted heating is installed you begin to see the benefits immediately. Gas ducted heating has 5 key benefits, all of which contribute to how potential buyers view the home. Apart from the aesthetic of nearly invisible climate control, the systems are easy to use, automated, and energy-efficient by using natural gas. Even if you aren’t considering selling, you could experience these benefits in your home, yourself.
Affordable and Sustainable Heating Systems
Modern buyers are more environmentally conscious, and with house prices continuing to increase, they are looking for properties that won’t shock them with large expensive bills early on. Most ducted heating systems last 10 years when well maintained, and most major brands provide a 7-year warranty.
Apart from environmental considerations, buyers are very conscious of running costs. Smart homes and automation are ways that technology can help people save money. Automation includes setting the thermostat to a reasonable temperature to be comfortable and not heavily impact the environment. They also offer the option of setting up a timer so you can have the house warm when you get home or by the time you get up.
