Hello,

I want to buy an apartment. There will be construction work. I especially want to improve energy performance. First, I have inquired about insulation. But I would also like to improve the heating system.

Therefore my question: which energy systems would you describe as the most efficient? I am in a city, and therefore some technologies like e.g. [Solar panels] are difficult to implement.

Technologies, brands, all recommendations are welcome.

Best regards,

StevenH

Hello, there are certainly several heating systems that could be suitable for you. In any case, I would recommend condensing boilers, as they are significantly more efficient and thus help save heating energy. In terms of investment costs, a gas condensing boiler is certainly advisable; due to these lower investment costs, there is also a clear advantage over other heating systems.

You want to buy an apartment and are considering things like insulation and heating system? These are usually regulated by the [Eigentümergemeinschaft] in an [WOHNUNG] and are not individually chosen in every unit. What exactly is it about for you?

How can gas condensing affect the energy demand? ;-) With gas condensing, consumption is always higher than demand!!! With heat pumps as heat producers, it is the other way around!
What a blanket nonsense! Just the connection fees often kill gas condensing! Completely and understandably justified! Sometimes it's outrageous what some utility companies charge here. Only a fool would agree to that!
Who buys the shopping cart at the discounter just because they want to shop there? :D

Best regards.

NB: Your advertising events aside, hopefully the end users are not as stupid as expected! :)
