I calculate roughly like this. Gas heating including solar and connection 6000 compared to air-water heat pump. KfW does not interest me. Operating costs estimated by BU, gas 1000 per year. Electricity for the two of us now 850,- per year. 1850,- plus 50 euros chimney sweep equals 1900,-. Air-water heat pump, gas zero, chimney sweep zero. Electricity, yes, if cold winter, then 2400,- per year, if mild winter, then only 1800,-. On average over the years, the air-water heat pump is not cheaper in operation than gas, only it is more expensive to purchase. Both systems need to be maintained, because it would be unfair to say one breaks down and the other does not. That is left aside. If I could now reduce my electricity consumption of the pump by say 400,- per year through Photovoltaics, which would be possible, it would look better. Unfortunately, the Photovoltaic system will again cost several thousand in investment. So, nothing gained except expenses. Karsten
