2. Boiler scrappage scheme - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_Scrappage_Scheme

   The total cost was to be £50 million, with a further £150 million for the Warm Front Scheme. [1] To qualify, one had to live in England and have a working G-rated boiler. Successful applicants received a voucher for £400 off the price of either a modern A-rated boiler or a renewable heating system (such as a biomass boiler, heat pump or ...

3. Greenhouse gas emissions by the United Kingdom - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_gas_emissions...

   As of 2022 the installation cost of a heat pump is more than a gas boiler, but with the government grant and assuming electricity/gas costs remain similar their lifetime costs would be similar. [55] However the share of heatpumps in the UK is far below the European average. [56] More waste heat could be saved and used - for example in London.

5. Furnace (central heating) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furnace_(central_heating)

   In some areas electrical resistance heating is used, especially where the cost of electricity is low or the primary purpose is for air conditioning. Modern high-efficiency furnaces can be up to 98% efficient and operate without a chimney, with a typical gas furnace being about 80% efficient. [ 1 ]

6. Central heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

   Institutional heating systems (office buildings or schools, for example) can use low-grade, inexpensive bunker fuel to run their heating plants, but capital cost is high compared to more easily managed liquid fuels. Natural gas is a widespread heating fuel in North America and northern Europe. Gas burners are automatically controlled and ...

7. Condensing boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensing_boiler

   Condensing boilers are water heaters typically used for heating systems that are fueled by gas or oil. When operated in the correct circumstances, a heating system can achieve high efficiency (greater than 90% on the higher heating value) by condensing water vapour found in the exhaust gases in a heat exchanger to preheat the circulating water.
