I do not have any experience to share myself, as I am just getting a furnace installed in a 30x100 this spring. The only advice I can give is to check the account term of your propane provider. Despite having an excellent credit myself, I got ask for a security deposit, and they would only accept pre-authorized payment. Needless to say, I told them to get lost, but now I have to find another supplier. :(

Hi Folks,
We heat our current starter house with wood. (20 x 36) Wood is great
but also creates some limitations - not the least of which is lack of sleep!
Anyhow we're exploring a few options for converting to Natural Gas /
Propane. Having not heated this way before I'm trying to gather some
general feedback on fuel consumption.
We're in Central New York (zone 5) and our primary heating season will
be Mid-March through May. I'm guessing we'd run the house around 60 -
65. We're looking at running a 250k btu heater in a 30 x 48 house. Or
a 80k-100kbtu heater in a 20 x 36(to 48) house.
Obviously there are a multitude of variables! I'm just hoping that
folks that have somewhat similar circumstances/set-ups could share their
thoughts and/or average fuel consumption patterns, etc.
Thanks so much,
Brian
