Sounds like quite the find, and at a price that you like!

I understand BTUs better than kW... so, 6kW works out to 20472 BTU, which will certainly be ample, especially if you are going with Passive House standards as your guide.

How many square meters is your home going to be? On one floor or multiple levels?

Best,
