When choosing a heating system ranging from traditional stoves to modern heating panels, various factors beyond financial aspects become significant – such as the region’s climate, existing infrastructure, building insulation effectiveness, and spatial design. Additionally, considerations such as safety, noise, maintenance demands, and environmental impact come into play. Government subsidies often influence decision-making as well.

From 2040 onwards, a fresh European directive will ban the utilization of fossil fuels, including gas, for heating purposes. As of 2025, subsidies for gas boilers will cease, presenting another notable disadvantage that intensifies uncertainties surrounding gas prices.

Regarding heat pumps, unquestionably a greener choice when installed correctly, the Energy Regulatory Authority dealt a blow by raising electricity prices for their operation. This action effectively doubles the operational expenses of heat pumps, eliminating their economic edge over gas boilers. Consequently, property owners are left pondering what alternatives remain available to them.

Let’s simplify matters and analyze the financial implications of acquiring various heating systems. In the following table, we’ve estimated the heating expenses for a 120 m² house, considering options such as a gas condensing boiler, electric radiators, electric underfloor heating, a heat pump, and namiwell heating panels powered by DALYN Technology™.
