Hello, we own a 20-year-old house with a wall-mounted boiler.
Model: Sieger HG11.
Since our exhaust gases are vented through a wall connection rather than through the roof, the boiler’s hot water output was limited to a maximum of 24 kW.

Now our boiler is nearing the end of its service life, and before requesting multiple quotes, I wanted to kindly ask here what the cost might be.

A new wall-mounted unit is to be installed, preferably again with a wall vent. The local chimney inspector has approved this.

Our house has a heated area or living space of 110 m3 (3,885 ft3).

Annual gas consumption is approximately 11,000 kW.

It’s really fascinating to see the mental gymnastics some people use to avoid taking responsibility. If I want to make a difference, my actions are what I can control first and foremost. Very few here probably have any influence over Xi, but everyone does have control over their own actions.

And no, I’m not so naive as to believe that one more heat pump will save the world. I just can’t listen to this kind of "argument" anymore. By that logic, I could just pour my used oil down the drain... after all, it’s so much less than what container ships release.

By "we" I do not mean "the Chinese."

To stay somewhat on topic, I see three possibilities:

1: I am too stingy and don’t care about the consequences of my actions.
2: I can’t afford a heat pump.
3: I am switching to a heat pump.

And who are you referring to then?
A group that, if you simply let them disappear and thus no longer contribute to resource waste and CO2 emissions, still wouldn’t have a real impact on the climate?
Everyone should ask themselves what contribution they want to make. Not just greenwashing. But please, let everyone make that decision for themselves. And don’t demand things that you don’t follow yourself.
No one tells you that you shouldn’t have children either.

You can also buy biogas 😉 The world is not just black and white

Do you have any data to back that up, or is it just a buzzword? And please stick to heat pumps. There are other forums for discussing having children.
