Hi all, I am considering taking out the Gas supply and replacing with electric radiators.
I have just taken ownership of small 2 bed house, which was idle for sometime and the electricity and gas were both disconnected. I don't know if the boiler works, but know it will cost money to get the heating system up and running again. The boiler is also in a prime/annoying location in the kitchen!
Is this idea a big financial mistake? I'd need 5 small radiators, look like it would cost 2500 all in. There is an open fire too, I live alone. Realistically I'll use the gas at most for an hour in the morning and evening half the year. I'm not really in a position to go the heat pump or solar way investment wise.
Any thoughts or advice would be great!
