Lounge Heating

The lounge is a place for comfort and relaxation, so providing sufficient warmth when it is needed is essential.

Central heating radiators are usually placed beneath windows to counter any cold down draughts.

Long narrow rooms, L shaped or other irregularly shaped rooms may be more evenly heated if two or more smaller radiators are used.

Fireplaces not only provide heating but also ventilation to a room. It is not usually feasible to reposition a fireplace because of the need for a flue but they can be used with gas or electric fires or sealed up completely if not required.

Fireplaces provide a strong focal point to a room which needs to be considered when arranging the furniture.
