Hi Kieran. I am about to commence a renovation of my home that will include new insulation and a heating system. We are getting rid of the oil tank and boiler. I was considering a gas boiler for the central heating and hot water, but considering the rising prices of gas, I am having second thoughts. What are the alternatives to gas for a home heating system? Are some systems more difficult to install than others?

Thank you,
