The government wants to reduce residential gas consumption. Electricity prices are gradually decreasing, while gas prices are rising. So, it's time to explore alternatives. Should you switch entirely to a heat pump , or opt for something in between? A hybrid heating system offers advantages. These systems can heat with natural gas, but also with an air-to-water heat pump. The most important advantage is that you can significantly save on your energy bill with a hybrid heating system, but this requires a fully functional system.
Are you considering buying a home with a hybrid heating system? A Homekeur building inspection is a good option. This will identify all potential defects, preventing any unpleasant surprises. We're happy to share 7 points to consider when considering a hybrid heating system, or if you're considering purchasing one yourself.
Hybrid heating systems are available in several versions, meaning they offer a variety of capacities, suitable for both small and large families. Check whether the hybrid heating system is suitable for your household size.
Before purchasing, check any existing hybrid heating system for proper operation to avoid subsequent costs. You can, of course, have this checked during a building inspection.
There are several types of hybrid heating systems. Would you like to install such a system in your home, but there's no natural gas line? Then you can also opt for a hybrid heating system running on gas, fuel oil, air heat, and electricity.
A hybrid heating system consists of two units, one inside and one outside. Check both units, or have them checked by a professional, to ensure proper operation.
Does your home have a good, sustainable heating boiler, but would you prefer a hybrid heating system? You can achieve this by installing a heat pump with an intelligent controller alongside the boiler.
Are you considering buying a home without a hybrid heating system and unsure whether to go with one? Then carefully consider the financial implications. A hybrid heating system will save you approximately 25 percent on energy costs compared to a boiler.
Greener homes are becoming increasingly important. Sustainability is playing an increasingly important role. A hybrid heating system emits significantly less CO2 than a boiler. You can therefore make your (new) home significantly greener by choosing a hybrid heating system if one isn't already installed.
A building inspection prevents you from facing unnecessary costs later on. Any defects, such as those in a hybrid heating system, are identified before the purchase. This allows you to include these defects in your negotiations regarding the property's price. You're always welcome to visit Homekeur for a building inspection. Schedule an appointment online now.
