yes, its not a joke,

in the u.k new builds will be banned from having access to the gas grid.

And that is as far as i am allowed to take it on this forum.

No doubt people (the brainwashed) will be thinking its a good idea.

Anybody who disagrees with you is brainwashed?

Interesting way to start a "discussion"

Was thinking the same thing.... this should last long

Cru Jones · 14 March 2019, 03:05 AM

Huh. I thought Brexit meant there would be less intrusive regulations, not more?

I actually have no idea if this is a good thing or a bad thing, so, I guess that means I'm not "brainwashed". Maybe it means I don't have much of a brain. ;-)

This is the same drivel as the alleged ban on combustion engines in 20 years, it is a decision for the government of the time. Any "pledge" by the chancellor has no legal weighting whatsoever.

Well said

. OP can't discuss "too' much on the forum except a one line statement and anyone who disagrees is brainwashed

what a great articulated thread OP.

Should be interesting turn of events in this thread and probably IBTL

So the committee is recommending this, not banning this.

Nice fake post.

LOL, "brainwashed"

Whether it is correct or wrong I would guess we will see many regulations of this nature coming in the future.

timedate · 14 March 2019, 03:13 AM

if you dont live in the uk,

you have no idea of the type of people who are running it,

they were once on the fringes being laughed at, like you are ridiculing me,

they now run the show, in all public and private spheres.

It's a jolly good laugh looking at these posts from foreigners telling us how our country should be run yet they have no clue on our system of government.

Does this mean global warming / climate change is real????

What about all the farting cows on the Earth? No more filet mignon nor milk??!!

Fat_ninja · 14 March 2019, 04:04 AM

Gas? Isnt the push to do more gas?

SearChart · 14 March 2019, 04:07 AM

Who cares whether it is gas or electricity warming the central heating? It can easily be done in new buildings and they are not forcing excisting households to make the switch so it is just a progression towards a society that uses less fossil fuels.

Who in charge exactly are you referring to with this one ?

except electricity is 3 times the price of natural gas

i suppose thats a minor point though

I was merely pointing out the subjectivity of your post, "you are a winner because I agree with your post". You are far too self righteous.

A new house should have solar panels, which considerably lowers energy costs.

And makes the cost of a new build significantly more expensive and expensive to maintain in the long run.

I do not know what the cost is on solar panels there but here it takes about 10 years to start recouping your investment. The upfront cost is ridiculous. Even with tax breaks here it is still way to high. The other issue is longevity of the solar panels. Where i live at they constantly get damaged but hail. Which sucks because we get over 300 days of sunshine a year.

as I understand it electric heaters tend to lose efficiency as the temperature drops below about freezing, at some point electric heat pumps don't work and use "emergency heat" resistance to create heat. I guess you can get around that in some builds with geothermal, but I wonder if geothermal increases radon exposure risk. https://www.homeadvisor.com/r/heat-pump-vs-furnace/

I also am unsure how effective heat pumps are with large builds over 10000 square feet.
