Propane vs Heating Oil

[desertrat]

I think our original furnace was installed when the house was built, which, at the time, was 46 years old. Besche finally said "We can't get parts anymore." They kept it going for the 20 years we lived here. We should have purchased a new one years before.

I thought the duct tape and safety wire was doing a pretty good job keeping the pump from falling off. They convinced me that a new one would be more efficient though. Hardy ever see the oil guy any more. I credit global warming to some extent. It's not all bad.

We have electric heat pump with propane backup. Efficient, clean burning, and when the backup kicks on (we have it set at 43 degrees) it keeps the house snuggly warm. We actually keep 1/2 the vents closed. Also, hooked the propane into our hot water...love that, and a gas fireplace.

Hank Hill would love you.
