What Is Ducted Gas Heating?

Ducted gas heating is a centralised system that uses natural gas to warm air before distributing it throughout the home. A single unit generates the heated air, which then travels through concealed ducts to multiple rooms at once. You can control the temperature using a thermostat, and the system maintains it automatically.

Unlike portable heaters, gas ducted heating units deliver consistent warmth throughout the entire space. The heated air circulates quietly and quickly, allowing rooms to reach the desired temperature with minimal effort. Most systems run on natural gas, which makes them cost-effective and reliable for variable climates.

How Does Ducted Gas Heating Work?

Ducted gas heating is an efficient way to warm your entire property. It features a central heating unit, often installed outside or in the roof space. This unit burns natural gas to heat the air. A fan then pushes the warm air through a network of insulated ducts that run under the floor or above the ceiling. The heated air flows out through vents located in each room, spreading warmth evenly across your property.
The system uses a thermostat to control the temperature. When the room reaches the set temperature, the heating stops, and it starts again when the temperature drops. Some setups even allow zone control, so you can warm only certain parts of your house when needed, saving energy. This method ensures consistent warmth quickly and efficiently, making it a popular choice in colder months.
