Electric furnaces

Going to replace an ancient oil furnace. My first preference is
electric & would appreciate advice/opinions on installation. Old
furnace to be demo'd from the skin out as the ducts are not suitable for
electric.
Does electric differ from other fuels in installation procedures, ie: is
Schedule (??) needed & what is it? What does it accomplish?
If the price of oil is not high enough for you, the change to electric is a
good idea. You won't have to worry about having money left over at the end
of hte month.
Rates vary, but oil in my area would have to be about $5.20+ for electric to
be as cheap. My electric is 18.3¢ and rising
Installation is m uch different in some areas, but the same for ducting.
I'm not sure what you are looking for there, especialy the Schedule
question.
ps: Not posted to HVAC group.
I'm sure they'd be happy to help.
