Anyway, yeah, electric heat is cheaper


Where? Not USA national average, nor the metropolitan areas of NYC,
Chicago or Philadelphia.


electric heat isn't cheaper anywhere.


Really? Here in Douglas County, WA our residential electric rate is .0185
per KW hour. We have cold winters and hot summers. My home is 2400 Sq Ft and
is total electric. My average bill is $52.00 per month. Of course our
Public Utility District owns its two hydro dams, and sells the surplus
electricity on the open market at market prices.
