Our first tip is to choose a heater that suits the room and your needs. Portable electric heaters are 100% efficient, but heat pumps can be more than 300% efficient. Consider heating only the room you are in rather than the whole house.
Choose a heater with a thermostat which cycles on and off, and a timer. This helps maintain an even, constant temperature.

Where today you may see trees turning brown, in future these landscapes will be restored.
This is thanks to huge efforts around the region by Iwi Trusts, community groups, volunteers and workers, in coordination with Northland Regional Council. It's all part of the National Wilding Conifer Control Programme. If you have questions about wilding pines locally, talk to Northland Regional Council or visit the website.
To learn about the removal of wildings from Taharoa Domain and why we need to prevent the spread, visit wildingpines.nz
