1. You could easily install hot water baseboard heat, radiant in floor heat, that works on solar with natural gas back up. We do solar hot water/radiant floor heating all the time (new construction). If you are doing a remodel , you would need to do hot water baseboard or have an hydronic air handler for forced air, if you wanted to use solar as your main heat plant. Here in New Mexico, we install radiant heat, in the floor, that runs on 90 degree water ( solar), solar hot water, all with natural gas or propane back up(could be electric back up).Good luck!
2. I would recommend buying Lennox high efficient equipment because the quality is there. Prices vary by area in the USA but here in Indiana it would cost more than $3000 and less than $4500 for most residential size gas furnaces of the 90% and above efficiency rating. I do not recommend solar for heating because the efficiency is poor and the cost to install is high.
