cheaper to use oil-filled heater and keep thermostat at 62?
I work in an unheated basement all day and the temp ranges from 55-62
degrees. I've grown accustomed to the temp with an array of fleece pants, jackets and socks. My children don't seem to be bothered by cold temps. The problem is my wife, she cannot handle any temperature lower than 66 degrees. I feel it's a little wasteful to turn up the heat for the whole house (we have one-zone heat) when she is the only one uncomfortable so I was considering an oil-filled heater to follow her around. I'm just wondering if it's worth it or will it be a wash cost-wise. Has anyone else tried this? |
