Turning Your Blue Monday Green: Eco-Friendly Heating Solutions to Brighten Your Day

It’s Blue Monday, and the coldest day of 2024 so far! As temperatures plunge to -3°C and yellow weather warnings for snow and ice blanket the UK, it’s easy to feel the winter chill in the air. But what might surprise you is that this frigid weather, even in the heart of winter, is connected to the complex web of global warming. Yes, global warming can lead to unexpected cold snaps, a phenomenon that might seem counterintuitive.

Amidst this bone-chilling cold, there’s nothing quite like the warmth and comfort of your own home. On Blue Monday, as the evening draws in and the frost continues to bite, many of us will instinctively turn up the heating. Yet, in seeking this warmth, it’s essential to consider how our heating choices impact the very global warming phenomenon responsible for these extreme weather conditions.

Fortunately, at Trust Electric Heating, we offer a heating system that can turn your Blue Monday green! Combining electric heating with renewable energy sources! Instead of relying on conventional heating methods that add to our carbon footprint, you can now opt for an electric heating system that takes you completely off grid!

The NEOS Electric Radiator: A Step Towards Reducing Carbon Emissions

At Trust Electric Heating, we recognise the pressing need to minimise our environmental impact, especially in terms of carbon emissions. In line with this commitment, we designed and manufactured the NEOS electric radiator, an electric radiator that aligns with our values of sustainability and efficiency. Here’s how the NEOS electric radiator’s energy efficiency helps in reducing your carbon footprint:

Energy Efficiency

In our quest to offer the most energy-efficient heating solution, at Trust Electric Heating we have taken an extra step to quantify the efficiency of our NEOS electric radiators. Through our Knowledge Transfer Partnership with The University of Huddersfield, we’ve conducted extensive tests, meticulously comparing the NEOS with other popular electric heating methods. The results were nothing short of enlightening, reaffirming our unwavering dedication to energy efficiency.

Our tests revealed that to generate 24 hours of continuous heat, the NEOS electric radiator required a mere 10.28 hours of electricity. This is a monumental discovery when compared to alternative electric heating methods, which ranged from consuming 20.03 to a full 24 hours to achieve the same heating level. This data not only underscores the NEOS radiator’s unmatched efficiency but also its capacity to significantly reduce energy consumption, directly translating to lower carbon emissions. Efficient use of energy is crucial in reducing the overall demand for electricity, which in turn minimises the carbon footprint associated with power generation.

Understanding the impact of your heating choices on both your energy bills and the environment is vital. That’s why we’ve put together a comprehensive Running Cost Guide. This guide provides detailed insights into the efficiency of the NEOS electric radiator and compares its running costs against other heating methods.
