Perhaps most importantly, homeowners will notice very
little difference in use between Ecodan and ‘traditional’ gas
fired central heating - unlike some other sustainable heating
systems. Even the user controls for Ecodan operate in the
same way to those found on a traditional domestic heating
system. Ecodan certainly makes it easier for homeowners
to significantly reduce carbon emissions while cutting their
energy bills.
