but I keep two Gas Fired SPACE heaters just for when
the electric is out.
If you are going to have a back-up source for heat... and even if you
don't...
Then don't say "high tech furnace's are a threat".
The fact is, the newer, high tech, modern day furnace's are safer than the
old units.
My baseboard heat isn't working as well as I hoped,
even at 6 cents, it is expensive to heat just one room, small
kitchen and bath.
Expensive at 6 cents... something isn't right.
Of coarse a heat pump would be more economical than your straight electric
heat.
Gas SPACE heaters can be built to be just as
efficient as the modern furnace,
Going backwards in technology again are we?
and I suppose I could
put ductwork for flame air and a heat exchanger in the
vent pipe, so I may need to do that next summer.

You're starting to sound like an engineer that is wanting to spend $1000 to
save $5.
Good luck with that.
