Default Surviving high heating oil prices




Forgot to ask if you have a basement.

Yes, electric can be cheaper than kerosene by a mile.
I think the oil filled ones are safest. Fans and radiant heaters have more

fire problems.

Half basement - actually about a third basement. Stone walls. room for
furnace, hot water heater and lots of canning jars - some of them full. Can
walk out of the basement on the level - and land drops away another 15+ feet
within 6 feet of the back of the house. (Live on a ridge.)
