I would like to try to manage without technology and I also think it’s good if I can do without a water-carrying heating system. If I can’t avoid it, a log wood gasifier would also be an option. However, it only qualifies as a central heating system to a limited extent since you have to refill it daily in winter. (So preferably gas + fireplace) I fear that the climate split unit will also not be recognized as a heater and you’ll have problems meeting the KFW 100 standard again??? Otherwise, that would be a great solution. I will google it right away... The distribution of heat in the house is what most fireplace owners did not plan for. Therefore, mine will be placed centrally as described in the 2-meter-wide passage between the living room/hallway with stairs going up. I now have a similar system in my very old house. The fireplace is in the kitchen and the heat moves into the living room through a 1 by 1 meter opening in the wall. It is important that there are no steps in the ceiling. (Normal doors or door openings are unsuitable) It works great for me...

Heating with electricity is generally demonized and described as inefficient. However, if the residual heat demand is very low (Kfw 40), it can be a sensible alternative.

Most wood stove owners do not want to heat the entire house with it, but rather enjoy a cozy evening in front of the fireplace. Therefore, the stove should be sized very differently than you need it. It may be possible to control the heat supply to the stairwell and living room, but can you then distribute it to the other rooms? What I could somewhat imagine would be heat distribution via a controlled residential ventilation system, but you don’t like technology. I don’t even want to think about the price reduction in a possible resale. Hardly any buyer will want to heat a fairly new house with coal, as major renovations would be necessary first, which would lower the purchase price. Banks might also react quite skeptically here. On the topic of log wood gasifiers I quickly googled and saw statements like "to be refueled every 5 days," for example.

As far as I understand, an air-to-air heat pump generates about 3 kWh of heat from 1 kWh of electricity (25 cents). So about 8 cents per kilowatt. (But only up to +2 degrees) Connected to the photovoltaic system, that certainly makes sense. The question is whether I could plan a central location for such a device (which apparently makes noise). And then I would still need radiators in the rooms. So it can only operate as an auxiliary device. The question of dust stirring also arises... However, I would take this idea to the energy consultant.

Hello!

Have you ever thought about what will happen when you are old? Or maybe if you need a wheelchair (e.g., due to an accident)? Who will do the wood then? What will you do if you go on vacation for a longer time? Or if you go out in the evening, do you want to leave the children at home with the fire?

In case of a sale, an additional pellet stove could be connected to the chimney. I had already planned a second connection. This must be discussed with the chimney sweep beforehand to ensure that the chimney is designed for it. But it is true that this could disadvantage the sale. I only need a completely normal fireplace stove of about 10 KW. Most people cannot heat with it because they are overwhelmed by the heat since the room to be heated is too small. You mainly control the output through the amount of wood added. The heat distribution could be a problem and maybe the electric heaters in the upper rooms would work more than desired. However, I cannot imagine that it will be so drastic with the insulation, especially since I still plan air slots at the top of the chimney to have the waste heat in the bathroom. : the problem is that with electric heating I do not have a chance for kfw 40. No matter how well I insulate. Or do you have other information?
