i had a heat pump installed 2 years ago in an 80 year old house. best move i made. was heating with gas and oil before that. heat pump is the way to go, now.

would it be cheaper to go all electric?No matter how you heat your house, this year will cost you more than last, according to a government report Tuesday.Hardest hit will be those who use oil heat. Due mostly to higher crude prices, nationwide-average oil heating bills are expected to be 22 percent higher this winter than last winter, according to the Energy Information Agency. About 7 percent of all Americans heat their home with oil, mostly in the Northeast.Natural gas users, accounting for over half of U.S. households, can expect to pay 10 percent more this winter. Propane users can expect to pay 16 percent more, while electricity users will see a 4 percent rise. About 30 percent of U.S. homes are heated with electricity while about 5 percent use propane.In addition to higher fuel prices, EIA said this winter is projected to be 4 percent colder than last, which accounts for some of the rise in heating costs.
