@burger_jaap I am shocked anyone would consider installing a gas boiler in 2026. Especially considering the mild French winters and that heat pumps also supply a/c.

@chantaryu2 These new regulations are especially made for improving social housing, where nothing has been done for years and which often has the lowest energy efficiency rating. Most of these properties have ancient gas boilers. Landlords have often simply replaced them with cheap alternatives; this is now to be avoided.

@NatureMC @burger_jaap but the original post says gas boilers in new housing. This is insanity.
