Anybody heat their home with Electric

The corn stoves run costantly too, so it is a nice consistent heat. Also, corn is not dirtier than pellets if you have a good corn stove, he is probably used to the cheaper corn stoves. The Bixby can burn corn or pellets, just flip a switch. It also dumps the ash by itself, lights itself, and makes your coffee in the morning!

Yes, i know that he pays that much but I don't know his living habits and I don't really know how much wood he burned last winter in conjuction to that. So to heat solely with electric would be alot higher of course. I don't have access to a woods that I could log out for heating wood so I'd have to buy it from someone.

73k is a pretty good deal. That's in my home town which is 12 miles from where i'm at now. That house in my current town would be 90+ easily. I was thinking of getting it and fixing it up and making some money on it.

You can see in the attached pic that it clearly needs something done with the countertops.

Yeah those countertops are pretty sweet. Something straight out of napolean dynamite. If you want to spend some money on countertops check these out. They are all made at my work. You can get fiberoptics in them to. Ask denny hecker how he likes his.

I have infloor heat but i'm renting a duplex that doesn't have any basement. It's definately the way to go for a garage or for a house that doesn't have a basement. Even if you don't plan on doing it, it's not a bad idea to at least run the PVC tubing throughout the floor just in case you want to upgrade later on.

What does having or not having a basement have to do with being able to utilize in floor heat?

Jet does it get hot on the outside to the touch? Is it possible to have one installed like a furnace and use some sort of forced air system?

The MaxFire version doesn't get hot on the outside except for the door, but there is a child protective safety screen. The UBB (Ugly Black Box) can be ducted into current duct work, but that does get hot on the outside.
