Diff between a $20 and $100 1500W space heater

ANOTHER SEPERATE ISSUE, a friend said she will just use space heaters
in limited areas, to keep the forced air gas furnace set at 60
degreees to save bucks.
but most likely because electric is so expensive it will actually cost
her more.
electric heat is costlyt
************************************************** ****
Some places still have rates of 8¢ for electric while oil is $4+, narrowing
the gap. It is not so much a Btu for Btu exchange, but if you can use
10,000 Btu of electric and not run a boiler or furnace burning 50,000 Btu
heating unused space, there is a savings.
