UPBEAT MUSIC There's an energy source that's absolutely free that we could all make better use of. So, Pauline, how hot is the Sun? Well, it's around about 6000 degrees Celsius. Should be hot enough to heat a house, then. Yeah. Incredibly, the Sun provides around 50 times the energy you need to heat your home, so the perfect time to look into using the sun to keep your home warm and comfortable is when you're planning your renovation or building. That's the time to save on future heating costs. If you don't, the consequences will be with you for years to come. Let the heat in and trap it in. Think about the size of your windows, double-glazing and insulation. Also, concrete floors and walls can soak up heat to release later. Here's a tip ` every two square metres of north-facing window can bring as much warmth as a 1-kilowatt heater. For some hot tips to make the most of the sun, visit energywise.govt.nz
