to full installation of systems.
We have a team of qualified Electricians and Plumbers
to carry out installations and we provide a reliable and professional
service to all new and existing customers.
We are all using more and more energy – charging
up our mobiles and laptops, keeping our rooms hot and drying our
clothes in tumble dryers, for example. But
Global Climate Change is one of the major problems facing us in the
21st century. Tackling climate change will be one of the most
important things this generation does, and everyone needs to get
involved.
Scientists agree that the most likely cause of
the changes are man-made emissions of the so-called "Greenhouse Gases" that
can trap heat in the earth's atmosphere in the same way that glass
traps heat in a greenhouse. Although there are six major groups
of gases that contribute to Global Climate Change, the most common
is Carbon Dioxide (CO2).
Carbon Dioxide comes from burning fossil fuels, such as coal,
gas and oil to heat buildings (including homes) and transport.
The best way of reducing CO2 emissions is by using less energy
and, just as importantly, getting best value from the energy that
we do use. If we don’t check our energy use this could result
in more severe storms, crop failures and rising sea levels. Although
the issues are global, the solutions start at home.
Energy used in homes is responsible for more than a quarter of
the UK's carbon emissions, and 80 per cent of this is for heating.
