Forced-air heating (fueled by gas, oil, or electricity) is
a very common type of central heating. Other types of heating include
radiant electric and hot water. Houses may be cooled by central air
conditioning, room air conditioners, heat pumps, or the old-fashioned
way—with ceiling fans. And in some areas where too much or too little
humidity is a problem, the interior air is brought into balance with the
help of humidifiers or dehumidifiers. A good barrier of insulation helps
to keep hard-won heated or cooled air inside your home where it belongs. |
