A replacement is most likely to be considered in houses that are heated with oil. Because oil will become more and more expensive simply due to the rising CO2 tax. In addition, new oil heaters will only be permitted as hybrid solutions from 2026. And oil boilers older than 30 years must be replaced by law. Then maybe that’s an opportunity. There is money from the state for gas hybrid heating systems, which also include renewable forms of energy. Heat pumps are also encouraged, they are an excellent choice in well-insulated houses and can be combined with photovoltaic systems.
Everyone has already made these 6 mistakes when heating
But if an exchange is too complicated or expensive, these tips will help you save money and energy.
1 degree room temperature saves 6 to 7 percent: Our living rooms often have 21 degrees and more. But we still feel good at 19 degrees without endangering our health. Just 1 degree less saves 6 to 7 percent of the energy.
Not every room has to be equally warm: The living room now has 19 degrees. That’s nice. But does the hallway have to be 19 degrees? No. 16 to 18 degrees are enough. And in the kitchen, the oven and stove help to heat up the room while cooking. The bedroom should not be heated anyway, or only temporarily, for example to prevent mold. There is huge savings potential in our apartments.
