Fjärrvärme


We're getting fjärrvärme installed this week. For those who don't know what "fjärrvärme" is, it's central heating pumped in directly from the powerstation. The hot water left over from the cooling towers when generating electricity is pumped through the town, providing hot water and central heating for those who want it. Our old oil-powered heating system leaves us with a huge carbon footprint and so we wanted a more "greener" home.
The installation will take all week.
