Hello everyone,
I am about to start a construction project.
Single-family prefabricated house with a basement.
Heated area approximately 350 square meters (3,767 square feet).
Two adults and currently two children, possibly a third child to follow.
A controlled ventilation system is planned.
Putting aside the initial costs of the heating system,
which option will be more cost-effective in the long run for heating expenses?
An air-to-water heat pump possibly combined with photovoltaic panels?
Or a pellet heating system combined with solar thermal?
For your information, in my current quote the air-to-water heat pump including photovoltaic system costs 37,000, with the photovoltaic system priced at 20,000.
The pellet heating system including solar thermal is quoted at 21,500.
What do you think the ongoing heating costs will be for the house approximately?
What do you recommend?

Unfortunately not... the underfloor heating would be significantly more expensive for us. Anyway, the subject is off the table for the next few years. We spent a year going back and forth, calculating, planning... I’m glad this topic is settled. There are still plenty of other matters to decide. 🙂
