Hello everyone,
The topic of heating is very relevant for us right now, and I’m getting a bit frustrated. The contractors seem to have little experience and mostly just sell the top sellers of their own brands. For that, they charge about an 80% markup plus installation fees. What I really want to know is… who buys the equipment online? So far, I haven’t found a single heating professional who will install units that weren’t purchased from them. I suspect that heating contractors get their equipment directly from the manufacturer or wholesaler. But if there are some shops online, there must be a market for it.
As I said, I’m just curious. Of course, some people might install their heating systems themselves, but that can’t be very common.
so long, ck

Which hot water tank do you use? I am looking for a hot water tank with a connection option for an electric heating element.Frequently used when the builder is taking the lead are tanks from SHWT (one large double heat exchanger), an electric heating element is possible; you may want to check if a different tank model is required for that. Or have a look at tanks from TWL.
We have a Juratherm HDW tank because our heating installer recommended it, and I didn’t want to provide separate equipment. The tank is somewhat more expensive and slightly better in terms of the heat exchanger and insulation. There were electric heating elements available in different versions; 220 V is sufficient for emergency use.
