I own a brick house from 2017, and as is normal in Denmark, it is heated by district heating (hot water heated by a company a few miles away, and sent through hot water pipes around our area, and into the house, through hot water cables in our floors.)
It’s fairly cheap, easy to regulate temperature in individual rooms, and it keeps the floor warm for my kids crawling on it.
But, if the power goes out for a few days, a week, or god forbid, longer, then I’m screwed.
So I’m trying to look into alternatives, for heating my house during extended power outages and such. Don’t need to heat the entire house but at least a couple of rooms we can stay in. The house is well insulated. I have looked into some oil and gas ovens but am worried about carbon monoxide, and how to vent the gas.
Any tips?
