Same goes for the oil heating system and the boiler

I believe you are no longer allowed to install a new oil-fired boiler in France (see this thread):

Boiler help

Help! There is a problem with the oil-fuelled boiler in the house that we are due to complete the purchase of tomorrow. In a nutshell, not to be used - dangerous! Can anyone give an idea of costs that might be involved in repairs or worst case scenario replacing the boiler? It was inspected yesterday and the devis has so far not been received.

• it may be possible to repair or service it if it’s not functional, but not replace it with a new one?
