Well the honest and cheaper propane company in town has sold out to it's crooked competitors and I want no part of their buisness (their prices were 20 cents higher per gallon and are known for short filling, full billing). Their HQ is in CA, and it's the local guys that are crooked. Anyways.
Since we have a diverse background here and a seemingly infinite wealth of knowledge, has any one here ever done a switch from propane/natural gas furnace heat to electric? Thoughts? Costs? Any particular electrical heating system better than others? I don't really want to tear out my floors if I can help it.
Electricity here is already cheap, like .06/kW, and I've already been told to get a separate meter for the heat because it's a lower rate (I'm not the only one in town working on the swap, so the local electricians will be busy :-\). I got a wood stove this summer, better get to installing it and making a decent stack of wood!
