Hello everyone,
we are planning to buy a house from 1970. One downside, in our view, is that the living areas still have night storage heaters installed. If I understand correctly, the ban on these was overturned, so they are still allowed to be used.
According to the seller, unfortunately there is no gas supply on the street. What alternative heating options are available?
Maybe this is just a misconception, but I have heard that a heat pump only makes sense with underfloor heating – is that correct?
Is there a general estimate for the cost of installing heating pipes? The house has two floors and about 200m² (2,150 sq ft).
Thanks and best regards from Hessen

I don’t see anything mentioned here about oil tanks or radiators. As far as I understand, there are only night storage heaters so far. That means a complete central heating system is due—either an expensive one with underfloor heating and major renovation, or a cheaper one with radiators. Correct, I was thinking of a different thread...
My apologies.
