Which is cheaper, Gas or Electric?
I've got about 5 space heaters of various types in my house, but I
rarely turn them on because it seems like the Gas furnace is keeping up
well.
My furnace is about 3 years old, and is marked with an energy guide
sticker that says it's not all that efficient, though I'm not sure if
that's because the air conditioning uses a bunch.
Electric always costs more. The heat at the power company turns into
electric and you are turning that electricity back in to heat. It's
not efficient.
At 7 cents per KWH or less electric heat may well be cheaper than NG, oil
and for sure propane.
And yes that rate is available.
