There's no gas where I live, so a multi-fuel stove feeds the heaters. Great when it gets going, but it's a pain in the arse to empty the tray, fill up with coal, keep topped up etc.
I'm unsure of whether we'd need to replace our boiler or not. It's a big old thing that heats the water, with the stove heat also heating the water when it's on.
Do any of you guys have any sort of idea how much this could be? We'll need an oil tank, possibly a new boiler and I'm not sure what else.
I'd be looking at ground source .
But oil heating is as a good as gas probably cheaper not sure how big your house is as in room sizes ceiling heights windows and outside walls all come into sizing up radiators on the chart .
The boiler size will differ according to in old money cos I'm an old git BTUs British thermo units as opposed to KW.
The bigger the boiler the bigger the price radiator sizes pipework sizes and lagging all come into it.
Some heating engineers don't have the appropriate tickets for oil boilers that's another course .
So be careful and check out the appropriate site who will have recognised installers .
