Wood pellets & Propane !!

Yes, mjonesnh, but I'll bet its still cheaper to be all electric, in your case. When we moved here 32 years ago, and I was a lot younger, we fell trees and got 6+ cord of firewood and heated with that. That went on for about ten years then we went to pellets(@ $95/ton) and that lasted another ten year. Then pellets skyrocketed and we turned on our electric heaters and have been that way for the last ten years. Our winter electric bill is a little less than half what it would cost to heat with pellets.

Pellet prices have gone sideways the last 10 years for sure.I can remember pellets 10-12 years back for $99 per ton.I have done the math and pellets verses 4-5 tanks of propane per year save me many $$.

I just bought my own Propane Tank (500 gallon) and got installed regulators and Teed into my rental tank with the 400 gallons of propane is ran 1580.00... Not bad for a 500 Tank, 400 gallons of fuel and all the install/delivery/setup fee's. If anyone wanst to know company let me know I can get 50 buck referral fee!~ " Me and neighbor BOTH bought ours for 4th of July special. The are all over upper mid west and up into N. East.
