Looking into if our existing heating system can last a few more years. Replacing it is going to be a 5 figure sum that I don't want to spend right now. If it can last another 5 years I might be able to squeak it into redevelopment for my area and just sell at that point. The other bit is we have been using our heatpump minisplits upstairs and the gas heating system is really only being used to warm up the basement.
The space where my hot water tank and furnace sits is very small. I don't actually know if they can pull the furnace out with the water tank in place, which is for me (unexperienced) sounds like a massive undertaking.
Some one suggested replacing it with the instant on system for the heater but I'm not sure I have enough space to just throw one in there and not remove the old tanked system.
Let's just say, a series of "if it's not broken, don't mess with it" + money saving decisions have put me in the current spot.
