Thread: Heater 2

I have one of those Amish style small space heaters down here in FL. And yes, it's actually been cold down here and we've needed the heat. So since it was just wifey and I, I thought I'd just heat the room we were in mostly with that little heater. Well the electric bill came and it seems that it's more expensive to heat only the room you're in, than the whole house with the 240 volt heat pump system we have. Those stupid little heaters are not very efficient.

I thought about you moving from up North to get away from the snow and this year it has snowed in Florida. I think the snow is trying to find you Slab.:rolleyes: If it gets much colder down South we may have to move you back up North.

What we have here is an imbalance in the Yankee population vs location.
They have learned of our southern way of life, and are now departing in droves for the southern hemisphere.
Now, this has caused an imbalance in the weather patterns causing unnatural weather acts all across the south. This can not go on any longer. The Posse needs to rise, gather the illegals and drive these little doggies back north!!

Should similar to herding cats......

Do you have a concrete slab floor? If so you have get those heaters off the floor. As it soaks up all the heat. We run one in the bedroom. And does not make any difference in our bill. But I do use the Pellet Furnace to heat the house.

Yep, Slab's on a slab. That's all they got down here in Florida. If you dig a basement here, all you get is a swimming pool I guess! doh
