House

[emmzzi]

I have my quotes in and there is no difference in price between electric and gas boilers.

Electric:-
will fit in a small space and give me back a kitchen cupboard
is less likely to explode and kill me
is quieter

Gas:-
will still leave me with a small space in the airing cupboard for towel storage
is cheaper to run slightly
may appeal more to future house buyers

I'm coming down on the side of electric, but it depends how long I am going to be here I think. "Home or house" question!

Any other strong views?

Not sure actually - don't pilot lights need an electrical ignition these days and the thermostat is electric?

Good thing to ask the engineer I think!

Worst case - match, saucepan creating hot water bottle. Although as no internet I think I'd be round a mate's house within 20 minutes :)
