Hey everyone- thanks for all the input on this. I appreciate all the feedback. I'm looking at a WHEDA loan right now and seeing what i'm approved for. I'd like to get a little more for updates.

My friend actually has a wood pellet stove which is basically the same as burning corn. The wood pellets burn cleaner than corn but is obviously more expensive.

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.

Hey JET are you saying you heated your entire house for $250 for the entire last winter?! If so, did you soley heat it with corn or was this in conjuction to a natural gas system.

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