While yer at it, you might look into a high efficiency wood pellet

Natural gas is running about 1/3 the cost of pellet heat and that's at $3.20 a
bag ($160/ton). You can run the numbers against your gas and electric rates

Woof. Wow... didn't realize pellets had gotten that pricey.
Or see if geothermal heat pump might be
something worth investigating for its lower long term operating costs.
Would be very cool if you can handle the install costs and have the ground that
supports trenches over wells. Else it gets very expensive to install.
