Utilising gas as a heat source is a fast and efficient way to heat air. Flued gas appliances provide fast, dry heating solutions for your home. Gas burns much hotter than electric coil alternatives, and gas appliances are not affected by external air temperatures — meaning that the air delivery will be the same temperature no matter what is going on outside.

In New Zealand we use two forms of gas: Natural Gas, which is reticulated around most towns in the North Island and LPG which is stored in bottles and available across New Zealand from various companies. Flued heating appliances are a preferred option — as the by-product of the burnt gas is expelled outside — eliminating inside moisture issues. In the South Island Natural Gas is not available, gas consumers must use bottled or reticulated LPG.

PlaceMakers Heating offers a selection of outdoor approved heating for areas small or large in electric, gas or fire pit models, to suit all your needs. Kiwis love outdoor living but with unpredictable weather an outdoor heating solution is often required to take the chill out of the air. Investing in outdoor heating allows you to stay comfortable outdoors and entertain all year round and create the perfect ambiance for your family and guests. Outdoor heating is also a great option for cafes, bars, and public outdoor entertainment areas.

Ventilation helps the circulation of fresh air through your home. It allows moisture and airborne pollutants to escape, and fresh clean air to be drawn into your home resulting in better air quality. The importance of ventilation in our homes is often overlooked but the benefits are clear and significant in keeping your family healthy. These benefits include preventing mould & mildew, protecting against dust mites, and reducing vapour and moisture which in turn reduce the risk of virus infection, asthma, and other respiratory problems. Ventilation solutions like Heat Transfer options can be a good add on to your chosen heating solution. They are a great way to utilize excess warm air from living rooms that feature solid fuel burners, to provide some heat to the bedrooms via a ducted system in the ceiling.

A bathroom heater is a great addition to keep you and your family warm in winter after a bath or shower, and to heat the room ensuring comfort during the cooler months. A bathroom heater will help keep the room dry, clean, and healthy by reducing mould and mildew. There are several solutions available, whether you require wall or ceiling mounted, fan assisted or timed PlaceMakers has you covered.

Ceiling fans are a practical and stylish addition to your home.

Energy-efficient and cost-effective, ceiling fans offer an alternative to traditional air conditioning, contributing to a comfortable and well-ventilated environment in both residential and commercial settings.
