Hello
I am currently in the process of buying a house.
New build, 147 sqm (1580 sq ft) + 45 sqm (484 sq ft) basement
KfW 55 standard
Basement is heated
Basement rooms: laundry/utility room, storage room, and probably a home gym or storage room (more likely a home gym)
The standard heating in the basement is low-temperature radiators.
For an additional cost of about €2600, the entire basement can be equipped with underfloor heating.
What is better for the basement? Is the extra cost for underfloor heating worth it or not?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of both heating systems?

The system has to be efficiently designed if it is to receive the KfW 55 certification.

The system obviously has to be planned efficiently if it receives KfW 55 certification District heating/remote heating already has a theoretical advantage by default, which does not necessarily translate into an efficient heating system or low heating costs.

Pwnage61912 Mar 2021 11:26I definitely want to keep the option open to exit the local heating contract after 15 years.
Which heating technologies would be available to me then?
Basically only the air-to-water heat pump, right?
I don’t have a gas connection.
If I switch to a heat pump, it is definitely an advantage to have underfloor heating in the basement as well, isn’t it?

Does the water stay in a closed loop inside the house, with only a small amount of fresh hot water added as needed to maintain the temperature?
