If you're considering having central heating UK style (with radiators and boiler etc) then unless you're mega rich, forget it. There's no such thing here, you can't buy the stuff anywhere so it's all imported. Add that to the fact that very few people have much, if any, experience of installing it then you've got an expensive disaster waitnig to happen.

The ducted heatpump style thing we've got is really good though. There's a monster a/c unit outside, and a unit in the attic, and throughout the house just simple vents in the ceilings that pump out hot (or cold in summer) air. The company we used were good, no problems with them. Even so, this still isnt particularly cheap!
