I agree..., but I still have old fashion wood stove & house was built in 1958; however, glad I bought firewood this year. The oil bill was $2900 last year. This yr was $800 + $185 for wood. LOVE the wood stove:)
We live in a house that was built in 1925. All the windows have been replaced with insulated windows including the basement. all we have is a gas log buck stove that runs on propane. It heats a 2 story 1500 sq.ft. house and we have 1 12o gal. tank that has been 4 times since the cold set in which was about the end of Oct first of Nov. Thank the lord for the budget plan.
Put an extra blanket on the bed at night and move into a single room with a ceramic heater during the day. A ceiling fan running low keeps the warm air spread around. I can keep the thermostat turned down this way.
$400 elec bill and $250 propane bill. My son's electric bill was $700. I'll be glad when spring comes!
WOW...how much is an average electric bill...Mine is $100. I unplugged everything a few mo ago..ie...cell ph charger, coffee pots, tv's when not in use, computer, & installed motion lights in areas that I forget to turn lights off(kitchen). It seemed to save abt $75 per mo. I was very surprised.
We have a gas fireplace in living room and one in bedroom. Keeps the house pretty toasty without having to run the heat pump.
loving my woodstove burned about 3 cords so far...
