Lose the oil for a friendlier way to heat a room
As the winter closes in, there will be times when we just want to hunker down in a single room and stay warm.
At this point, turning up the central heating for the whole house becomes non-sensical and who wants to go room-to-room turning down the all the radiators except one.

How to improve your heating efficiency this winter
‘When do you switch your heating on?’ It’s a question that seems to rear its head every autumn, with the beginning of October being a common (but by no means definitive) answer.

Helping to prevent Hypothermia
Hypothermia is clinically defined as a core body temperature of 35°C and mild forms can be incredibly difficult to detect. The fact is that just a one-degree decline in core body temperature slows reaction time and impairs judgement, at 35°C speech is slurred, thinking becomes sluggish and rational decision making is impaired. Consciousness is fully lost at 30°C.
