How do running costs compare with conventional energy sources?
In a modern, well insulated property an air source heat pump gives you industry best efficiencies and low running costs. The very best of modern condensing gas boilers may only be a little more expensive to run but with ever increasing gas prices, regular servicing and maintenance, the costs soon add up so remember to add these into your financial calculations when comparing costs. An oil boiler or LPG system will cost considerably more to run and electric heating can be as much as three times more expensive!
