I’m on propane, too, Roccus. In the winter I keep my house in the 50s at night and while I’m at work, and warm it to about 62 degrees when I’m at home during the day. (Picture me in the recliner with several layers of clothing, a cat in my lap, and a quilt over both of us.) And my propane bill was STILL $300+ during the months of December, January, and February last winter. I’m not looking forward to this winter, I’ll tell you!

What about a wood burning stove?

300 for each month? I thought they got filled 1 per season, but guess I didn’t really know.

I’m a softy. I like it much warmer than that. I keep it at the mid 60s during the day when I’m home, about 70 in the evening when I’m inactive in front of the tube (in my rocker under a quilt) and whatever the woodburner will put out over night.(propane shut off) In the AM when I get up, the propane thermo gets turned up to 65 and I re-load the woodburner.

Everything is forced air.
