My furnace runs on natural gas. The entire county has had natural gas piped through it for decades; it's far cheaper than oil or electric here. The house got up to 60 so I turned the furnace off. I don't need air conditioning here; it's comfortable all summer.

Does a furnance in an area like yours run on oil or electricity? I turned my furnace on last week (to 62 degrees) It has kicked on a few times very early in the am. I don't like using it, sometimes I think it gives me a headache, and the house gets way too hot after a while. That is the reason I don't turn the thermostat higher (plus the money). But, remember, we have to pay for a/c in the summer, just to survive..........

It was 8 degrees this morning, with a wind chill of way
below zero. The high
is suppose to be 15 degrees. The house was 50 degrees when
I got up; my poor
little stove can't keep up with this cold. I turned on
the main
furnace...watching my $$$ go up the chimney. But it's
up to 57 in here!
