I know this is a little different, but I have a pellet stove. I used to have a mobile home that was about as tight as a screen house. The first year I contracted 1000 gal propane and used it all by the end of January. 200 more lasted through the end of the season. Thermostat stayed on 65. I bought the pellet stove and contracted 800 gal propane. I burned 3 full skids of pellets at $130 per skid. Propane was $1.29/gal. I used almost 600 gallons over 12 months. There were quite a few days that the temp in the house was nearly 90 untill I figured out how to adjust the stove so it would stay lit and not roast me out. If I figured it correctly I easily saved 1/3 on heat cost. When I figured out the stove the temp inside was about 78 so I figure actual savings was nearly 50% over propane alone. Once a month I had to clean out the ashes and flue. Small price to pay for being toasty warm at an affordable price. Stoves like mine last I knew were about $1000 at Menards. Mine was a close out and I got it for $600. One drawback was the blower motors bearings wore out and got noisy after 3 seasons of 24/7. I got replacements but they didn't last on the exhaust blower. The exhaust blower assy was $130 but was a better design.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
