I have a big log cabin, had ductless heat and air put in every room, but OMG if I use them my elect. bill is higher than most mortgages, so I try to do without heat. I have one small room that I closed off and use heat in, moved one of my machines in there and that's where I sew when the rest of the house is freezing. BTW, when just watching tv I am under a quilt with the heating pad and its really toasty. Want to have wood stove put in but no funds for it yet, am saving. And since I live out in the woods fuel is not going to be a problem, just cutting and collecting.
