ᐅ Heating via ventilation system with heat pump

Hello,

We are interested in a house that is currently for sale and are already in negotiations. We have now learned that there was a misunderstanding regarding the heating system. It is heated with a heat pump; until now, we thought there was underfloor heating. It has turned out that the heating is only provided through the central ventilation system, essentially using warm air. The seller presents this as a particularly high-quality heating system that was even more expensive. We would have found underfloor heating, at least in the bathroom, very comfortable.

Can anyone share information about this type of heating? What are its advantages and disadvantages?

The house was built in 2002 and has approximately 145 m² (1560 sq ft).

I'm putting a checkmark behind this now and am glad I realized it in time. We had actually already scheduled the notary appointment.
I didn’t expect the savings bank to operate like this and then only come up with empty excuses.

However, I find the agent's words very fair and humane.

Best regards, Yvonne

after he talked nonsense for so long?
The loss of trust affects the agent just as much. Anyone hiring him and who has to pay afterward should keep that in mind, and whose side this actor is really on...

He puts it a bit more politely, but basically it means: "Damn, caught. Something is wrong with the house, but I don't want to admit it. Let's end this whole thing, I don't want to talk about it."

Hi,
I just want to share a few insights about heating.
It’s a 121 m² (1300 sq ft) house.
So far, I have experienced one winter in an elk house with a liquid-to-water heat pump and infrared heating.
The mentioned fan heaters are installed in the bathroom as well.
Two of us have been living in the house for 8 months (since October 2016) and with construction power, mechanical ventilation, many electrical appliances, hot water, infrared heating (22-23°C (72-73°F) during winter), a dryer, and so on, we used about 6000 kWh.
The infrared heating was running for several months during that time, so I can’t really explain where the consumption in your planned house is coming from, since we’re definitely not very economical either.
Maybe this is helpful to you.
Regards
