Today, we had another energy consultation. Once again, we ended up a bit more confused than before.
Among other things, we were told about a heating option we hadn’t heard of before. It involves a cabinet that acts as a kind of heating center: it contains an air-source heat pump, equipped with a hot water storage tank and connected to a decentralized ventilation system.
The warm air is ‘distributed’ by the ventilation system. The entire cabinet costs around 20,000 € and requires very little maintenance.
To me, this sounds ideal. We could install our preferred wood flooring without underfloor heating, save a lot of money, and expect less maintenance.
I can’t find any useful information about this system online. Does anyone know about this simple setup? And what are the pros and cons?

This works in living rooms. In the bedroom, the window is usually tilted anyway, at least for those who sleep better in cooler temperatures. In the bathroom, you only need it warmer while showering; for that, you have the water heating system and/or infrared heating.
In practice, this could be challenging.
