Then heat with a heat gun. 

It's been vacant for a few years. no radiators. the plumbing pipe condition unknown.I contacted 3 HVAC contractors. 2 recommeded mini splits. 1 suggests gas heat pump.I found some discussions on BP about mini splits with favorable experience.

I looked into solar panels for my primary residence, since it is all electric (heat pump, no gas furnace or stove) and it still is not worth it IMO.

Just need to break out the electrical panel and break out heat as well.

Just purchased a 3-unit multifamily with a single boiler heating system. 

I'm looking to convert and separate a 4-plex's gas heat (current only one meter) to electric heat (also considering other options based on the cost).

The home inspection will come with some other small things that need to be looked at.Check all the water heating and HVAC, and water pressure in the building.see if you can locate the pressure regulator if you cant it could cost you $350 to find each and replace it.

Heating should always be tenants responsibility.

The cigarette odor and tar (yellowish residue) was found in the heating system furnace and duct work too.

I'm working on rehabbing a recent purchase to get it ready to rent, and in the course of installing a new curtain wall I discovered that the newly created bedroom would be without a heat source.
