1. aluminium window frames let in more draft then wood or plastic window frames.
2.concrete floors are better to have because they hold heat from the sun and then they let out the heat at night.
3. tiles are a horrible thing to have because they are glazed and they do not soak up heat they go cold and stay cold.
4.gas fires are better to have then log fires because you have to cut down trees to get the wood then when you burn it the wood makes soot and lets off little microfibers that are not good for our air.
5.if you are building a new house you could make your windows facing north are good becaause thats where the sun is and it will let in all the light.
gas heaters are beter than a fire place because if a birds nest or something else gets in the fire chimy it well block the smoke and it will go out the fire door and through the hrv systm and there will be a fire in every room.
