Default Gas heating options

One of our daughters lives in a house with no mains gas - only some
electric storage heaters.
Just pondering (on her behalf) - installing mains gas could be done at a
high cost - but then the cost of a boiler, etc makes it all economic
disaster.
Before she sets about replacing a couple of knackered storage heaters - is
there a realisic bottled gas option to get some heat into the house - there
is an external wall in the lounge.


Why do you want gas? It can go bang if there is a leak. An oil boiler
and an induction hob is a safer and more convenient option. It is easy
to clean an induction hob and it will turn off if you remove a pan.
You will need an oil storage tank.
