Unfortunately our house isn't new... built in 1927. The furnace is
gas - so that's our "cheap" fuel. We have gas central heat and built
in electric room heaters which we use sparingly. The temp is usually
set at 58° and inside temps are 65° and under (depending on outside
temp). On a cold, wet day like today... I turn up the furnace to 64°.
