Innovation in building and tech is going too fast for these small installation type companies. Zigbee, sensors, switches, motion sensors, per room heating, insulation, decentralized heat recovering ventilation, heat recovering sewage pipes, (noisy?) heat pumps, CO2 sensors, particle sensors, hybrid heating systems, house batteries, solar panels, heat panels, car chargers, vehicle to grid, smart appliances, variable electricity rates, dc subgrids…

An enthusiast can make a home so much better, more comfortable and efficient. But non of it is easily obtained the way we obtain our old gas heating systems.

And it drives me crazy, it’s so complex, it costs me so much time, but I just see so many “professionals” contradicting each other, I hate that I have to make all these choices.
