From September 2024, the operation of old solid fuel boilers will be banned, which has increased interest in heat pumps. They are ideal for houses with older gas boilers. In the future, they may even be more advantageous than coal, which will become more expensive due to emission permits. The pumps are maintenance-free and their price is decreasing. It is recommended to first insulate the house and replace the windows, then solve the heat source. Photovoltaics helps reduce the cost of a heat pump.
The topic of heating and the transition from outdated boilers to modern heat pumps brings up several key points worth noting:
Reasons for the increased demand for heat pumps:
- Legislative pressure: The ban on the operation of outdated boilers has forced many households to look for alternatives.
- Economic factors: Our new heat pumps with propane refrigerant operate at temperatures around 70*C, meaning they can fully replace gas or coal boilers thanks to the temperature achieved.
- Future coal costs: The planned introduction of emission allowances for coal may significantly increase its price, making heat pumps more economically attractive.
