Default Servicing a very old gas boiler - still done?

from gas? At great expense.


I believe the point is that the needed electricity can come from whatever
happens to be a good way of generating it.


sounds like a great way of missing the point.

So instead of burning gas in the home at 95% or so efficient,
you want to build ...


I wasn't *advocating* anything, just giving the motivation. And
whatever engineering trade-offs get made in the end, throwaway
remarks like "from gas? At great expense" will not be very useful.


If we keep using gas that doesn't require the first replacement
of household systems. Or the second!


All systems get replaced as they age and fail.
