Heating Your Home This Winter, What Not to Do
As the winter fast approaches us the central heating will be going back on in numerous households throughout the UK. But lets have a look at some of the more crazy ways that people try to heat up their homes every winter.
Tumble Dryer
Why run up two sets of bills? Well thats at least what these lot think. Instead of switching on their central heating they leave their tumble dryers running all day and then when they have reached a good level they open their doors and out flows a blast of heat.
Oven Hob
In all likelihood one of the more grievous ways, particularly if you have kids. But what I have actually seen a vast amount of people do is actually open up their oven hobs to get the heat flowing out. Once again a really uncanny technique that will in all likelihood end up costing them more money.
Boiler Water and Dehumidifier
When I first witnessed this type of technique I was literally fascinated and just how silly people could be. These people used to leave the shower running and the kettle boiling to heat up a room, at the same time a Dehumidifier was running in the background which was pulling the moist out of the air. Crazy, absolutely crazy.
Mass Candles
Oh, the old candle trick is saved until last. Do you realise that burning even a ton of candles, simply will not heat a room up, you will just be wasting time and effort.
Now you may be thinking to yourself, why to people do all of this stupid stuff. Its simply because they have somehow convinced themselves that they will be saving themselves money, when all they are going to be doing is spending even more money.
