At first when I wanted to replace the oil gas furnace with an electric gas furnace, my loving wife wouldn’t allow me to; however, she said that every one of us didn’t need to waste cash on a replacement because the oil gas furnace was laboring fine. I had to tell her about the rising cost of oil, plus this was a long time ago too when oil was much cheaper as well. Also, I told her that I planned on having solar panels installed so that would help to fuel the electricity to the gas furnace in addition to everything in our home. She told me that she didn’t realize that I was trying to install solar panels, but I had told her about it before… Even though I mentioned it before, she said she didn’t realize that I was so harsh about it, and of course I had to get this done because I was looking to save cash big time! This is a big part of why I had been researching numerous energy saving tips plus I had been trying to save cash however I could. I converted all the lights to LED, including the old fluorescent lights in the basement; With those you just have to bypass the ballast by rewiring the attached directly to the bulbs, which is pretty simple so long as you are careful plus turn off the power to the light fixtures before doing anything! The energy savings have been charming, however I’m absolutely not done. When I’m done, I want the electric company to be cutting me checks for putting energy back onto the grid! So after hearing all that, our wifey provided me with the okay plus I had an HVAC professional install the current electric gas furnace.
