Why Switch to an Alternative to Gas Heating?
Gas heating systems are widely used due to their reliability and low initial costs. However, recent developments make switching increasingly attractive:
- Rising energy costs: Gas prices have steadily increased in recent years, further burdened by CO₂ taxes
- Climate protection: Gas heating emits significant amounts of CO₂ and no longer fits into a sustainable energy future.
- Political regulations: Stricter regulations or even bans on installing new gas heating systems may be introduced in the future. For more information, visit the German Environment Agency (UBA).
