Original ways to improve your home or workplace

If you’re keen to enhance your home or workplace, perhaps because you’re thinking about moving, the new year could well provide the ideal opportunity to do this.

But you don’t have to feel limited to a conservatory or garage conversion or just taking on more square feet. There are other ways of making the most of your space.

Heavenly home scents

For example, you may not have thought about it much lately, but when did you last consider how your home smells? A home diffuser machine can neutralise unpleasant odours such as those from pets, while also making your home smell enticing and creating an uplifting, relaxing atmosphere. The concept is thought to date back to Ancient Greece, when people dipped reeds in essential oils to diffuse their scent across homes and temples.

These days, many diffusers still use essential oils such as lavender, rose and eucalyptus to create a pleasant living environment. At the same time, some diffusers can purify the air, and even repel insects, while also adding an elegant touch to your interior décor, since you can customise them to suit any design theme.

Going solar

Solar power is an outstanding way of producing your own power for free from daylight, thus bringing down your business gas and electricity bills.

If you’ve not heard of these previously, solar PPV systems comprise solar panels, typically fitted on to a roof, and which the solar PV installers will have fitted to an inverter with DC cabling. This transforms power from the solar panels to electricity that’s all ready for you to use. So you can use it as the main source of power for your operation, topping up anything else you need via the National Grid.

Anything left over is sent back to the Grid, or can be diverted to a particular circuit, immersion element or charging point for electric cars, either your own fleet or those belonging to your staff.

Boiler hire

Whether you’re facing an emergency situation, running a special event or short-term project or need back-up during extreme weather, or otherwise have peak demand, there are many reasons why boiler hire could make perfect sense for your business and enhance the comfort of your staff and customers. Plus you’ll benefit from expert support and maintenance throughout the rental contract.

Clearly, a faulty boiler can be pretty dangerous, so if yours need its regular servicing so that it stays running safely, hiring a short-term solution could well be ideal. After all, your business won’t get very far without ready access to hot water and heat.

Additionally, you’ll benefit from having one of the latest models on the market, with all maintenance and so on taken care of. And if any issues crop up, the hire firm should deal with them promptly. What’s more, rapid deployment means your boiler can be in use quickly.

Hiring a boiler typically works out as a very cost-effective, highly flexible solution. And because you’ll have access to the latest, energy-efficient models, it’s sustainable as well.

Look for a hire firm that does everything from start to finish, from first consultation to taking away the unit when the contract is up.
