Hello!
We want to have a house built and are currently still in the basic planning phase. Nevertheless, after a conversation with the architect, we are already thinking about the heating options.
We are not building a KfW house but one purely according to the Energy Saving Ordinance. It will have about 220m² of living space plus a basement.
In various construction performance descriptions from contractors (we are having the house built turnkey), you keep seeing heat pumps that, in addition to the unit in the building services room, also require a unit outdoors. For aesthetic reasons, we don't like that very much.
What are the alternatives for something like that?
Gas + solar (gas connection is available)?
Geothermal heat pump?
Or other air-water heat pumps that do not require an outdoor unit?
We will probably have a hipped roof (with a view to solar). With a flat roof, the panels look awful.
