We installed electric baseboard heaters in all the rooms in the cabin. It works great....until we got our first electric bill! Close to $250, and we were only there a few times that month! Well, that wasn't ok.
We decided to try a pellet stove. Not as messy as the wood burning stove, and from what we were told, it would be able to heat up the main floor and loft. So we gave it a try.
We love it!
Our next months bill was only $28! It has a timer, so we set it to come on at 5 a.m. and it gets the great room warm before we even get out of bed. We still use the baseboard heaters to heat the bedrooms while we are sleeping, but that's it. The pellets are about $5 a bag, and the bags last 2 days, if we are running it the whole time. It also has a really great flame.
This was a great choice!
