for such things as collectors and absorbers are eligible
for government grants.

Home Heating Costs Compared
Efficiency is a measure of how much of the energy in the fuel is actually available
for heating.
For instance, a 65 per cent efficient furnace loses 35 out of every 100 heat units up the chimney.
