How to heat Your home...house......?

Which systems,


Solar Power , natural gas or others.


Cold weather every winter.

Thanks.How to heat Your home...house......?
In our part of the town all houses are heated by gas. But there are many, many houses around here that already have photovolatic panels on the roofs. And I heard about some project houses that are solely heated by sun... great, isn't it?! Except for you can't open windows in those - they are air-conditioned... hm. But I guess you only have to get used to this...How to heat Your home...house......?
I hope your heating is okay again *little worried*

we have 2 of those heaters u can mount on the wall it has bricks that fill with gas and ignite and it heats our house just fine it uses LP gas and we keep the one in the living room set on one brick on reg. days but on cold days we put it on 2 and the one in the kitchen is set on one and if the house heats up to around 76 which is comfortable we can turn the one in the kitchen off it does not use electricty and all our heat stays in the house unlike ones vinted with a chimney they allow over half of ur heat to go outside and that wastes money...i would love to get electric heat but then the light bill would go through the roof lol...
Personally....gas


But I like what my uncle did....he bought %26amp; fitted his house with a furnace that can run off either gas or wood.


-It's nice because all he has to do is go down to the basement %26amp; put in a few large pieces of wood a day.


-That same nice feature is also the hassle. Having to stoke the fire when it needs it.


But they live in the country so wood is easy to come by (they've even burnt paper/cardboard).
Very expensive, electricity.


So we make sure we heat up the entire house in an hour then off.


Then when the house is cold again, on again for an hour again then off.


Until we all went to bed. Off.


Winter is quite expensive.
It's nice to have a house in the Tropics for winter and one up North for the summer. But if not migration then I would choose solar or wood burning. I love an open fire.
We live in a mild climate, so, when it does get cold, we use everything at our disposal, propane, electric, wood pellet stove seems most economical.
Well I have electric heat but I like to watch them flickers in the fireplace therefore I toss alot of logs on the fire right :)


Stay warm ova there :)
Solar power because it is environment friendly.
Kerosene and wood furnace
