I have so many drafts in my old house its not even funny. Someone I dated years ago, a true handy butch, is going to help me start sealing it up. I have a fireplace and even thought about a blower but the cost of wood and health risk of burning wood for me and my animals isn't worth it. I did some research and cost and it seems like a wood pellet insert might be best for me. It burns cleaner and the pellets don't cost that much. Does anyone have experience with this?
I also purchased two of infrared heaters. I am using smaller ones now and happy to say you do save money. I literally watch the meter spin when the heat pump is on.
I was talking to a friend and they told me their electric for a 2000 sq ft house, 3 kids was 600.00!!!! Thats insane. I don't know how older people & people on a fixed income can do it. If I didnt help my mom with some bills she couldn't afford to heat her house.
