If you want to reduce on gas this will work. If you want to save money, think about it well…

Creating heat with electricity (airco) can turn out a lot more expensive then heating with gas….

- make sure your airco has a good heatpump! (That is also efficient at low temperatures (SCOP))
- check your gas and electricity prices (in the netherlands electricity price is linked to the gasprice)
- heating a small extra room can be cheaper, but heating the main room could turn out much more expensive!
