Hey all, I'm a member here mostly for the pellet forum as a pellet stove owner, however I am researching something else lately I thought people here may be able to help with. I am in New England and currently have oil heat (baseboard.) My boiler is on it's last leg and I need to decide what I am going to do. I do have a pellet stove as you can tell, but I need a supplemental, or 2nd heating source. I would have preferred natural gas, but currently that isn't doable at my location.
Before I go and plan to buy a new oil boiler (I do have an electric hot water heater right now) I was wondering if I should consider propane instead? Cost doesn't seem to be that much different overall for propane vs oil but there are some pros and cons and I'm just not sure what they all are and if it's worth pursuing. I have a 2,400 square foot colonial with an unfinished basement.
Any thoughts, opinions or information will be appreciated.
