As with everything else, the cost is the primary concern when shopping for a gas hot water system. Some heaters are more expensive than others depending on the type, model, brand, etc. However, there is more that goes into the final price of the gas heater system.

Here are the major determinants that go into calculating the cost of the gas water heater system.


Capacity


Most gas water heaters are available in the storage variant. The tank comes in different capacities starting from 50 litres and ranging up to 250 litres depending on the need and usage.

For example, if you have a big family of more than four people and require hot water for bathing, washing dishes, doing laundry, cooking etc., you would need a bigger capacity heater. The larger its capacity, the higher the price will be.


Type of Gas Water Heater


Gas water heaters are of different types, models, and sizes. They may run on LPG or natural gas. Fuel charges are also different for each model and type. Learn more here on the various gas water heating systems.


Delivery


Of course, depending on where you purchase the gas water heating system and the vendor, there may be a delivery fee associated with where you have to pay to have the heater delivered. Some vendors cover the cost, but some may ask you to pay for it. A few provide free delivery within a set radius and charge a nominal fee beyond it.

If purchasing the heater from a location far away from your place, be prepared to pay extra transportation. Check before buying. The final charge is based on the system's size and weight and the total distance to be travelled.


Installation Costs


Once the heater arrives at your property, you will have it installed properly. This requires labour. The charges, of course, will depend on the complexity of the job. If you are getting a brand new system installed, pipes, fittings, gas line connections, and other plumbing jobs will incur additional costs.

On the other hand, if replacing your old system with a new one in the same place, the charges will be minimal. Therefore installation charges will need to be factored in to arrive at the final price of the heater.


Operating Costs and Maintenance


Like any other modern appliance, heating systems also need regular service and maintenance. Some models need more care than others. Be sure to check with the manufacturer or read the service manual. These will have charges as well. Repair and maintenance costs will add up over time, proving more expensive in the long run.


Service Accessibility


This depends on where the heating system is installed and how easily accessible it is. If the place is easily accessible, say in the patio or basement or the balcony, you need not pay anything extra. On the other hand, when the unit is installed at a considerable height where it is difficult to access, the servicemen might charge extra as it will take time.

Once you have selected the right heating system as per your needs, it is best to check with the supplier or manufacturer about other costs involved to evaluate the total cost of the same.

The ongoing pandemic and chilly temperatures have caused many of us to spend a lot more time indoors. While it has given us a chance to spend more quality time with our families, it can sometimes be hard to come up with new ideas to keep our kids entertained when we can’t leave the house.

If you’re looking for something fun to do as a family during a night in, try reimagining an old favorite and host a DIY family movie night. You can bring the theater experience to you without breaking the bank and have a lot of fun doing it! Keep reading to discover the best ways to put together a creative movie night the whole family will love.


Create a Custom Snack Bar

No moviegoing experience would be complete without a snack bar! Try creating a custom snack bar and fill it with your family’s favorite sweets and treats. Kids will love picking out their own snacks and drinks before the movie just like they would at a real movie theater.

And the best part? You get to choose what you serve! Spend the day baking sweets and treats with your family, try out new popcorn flavors or think outside the box and incorporate things you wouldn’t find at a normal movie theater concession stand. The possibilities are endless!


Create a Comfy Place to Sit as a Family

We all know how uncomfortable movie theater chairs can be. To make your family movie night as cozy and fun as possible, transform your viewing space into a comfortable oasis. Try building a pillow fort for your kids to watch from or simply fill your couch with pillows and blankets to create a cozy nest. If you’re feeling ambitious, buy some squishy bean bag chairs to put on the floor in front of your TV – they’re not just for kids!


Have a Themed Watch Party

Try adding a theme to your movie night to make it even more special for your kids. Choosing a theme to go along with your movie is the perfect opportunity for them to get creative. You can have your family dress up as their favorite characters, make crafts or movie posters to put up around the house or incorporate your theme into your drinks and snacks. For example, you could decorate cupcakes with the colors of the four Hogwarts houses or have your kids practice spells for Harry Potter movie nights.


Make it “Dinner and a Movie”

If your movie night preparations clash with family dinner time, why not combine the two? You can create a menu to go along with your theme or keep it simple and order in. No matter what you choose, your kids are sure to love eating together as a family away from the kitchen table.

Worried about getting food all over your furniture? Try laying an old sheet or table cloth on the floor for an indoor picnic. Simple TV trays work great too!


Create Your Own Movie Tickets

Add realism to the experience by creating custom movie tickets that your kids can show you before starting the movie. You can use this simple ticket generator from Apartment Guide to customize your tickets with the date, time and theme. Simply print them off when you're done. Surprise your kids with their very own ticket before the show or let them look over the templates and choose their favorite.

A new year is traditionally a time of reflection. You consider what you’ve enjoyed from the past year and what you want to work on in the upcoming months. If you’re focusing on self-care and embracing all things cute this new year, you came to the right place.

Today we have kawaii coloring pages to help people of all ages decompress. As you may know, kawaii is the culture of cuteness in Japan. Amigurumi are most certainly kawaii, and so are these coloring pages. Similar to knitting, coloring has been proven to lead to relaxation and calmness while reducing anxiety. 

Whenever you need a break, simply print out one of these kawaii coloring pages, get out your colored pencils and drift off into a world of cuteness. We’ve included a kawaii food design, kawaii cat design, anime design, kawaii monster design and a kawaii plant design. Once colored, these would make a great kawaii gift or could be hung as art in your home.
