Greetings all. First time poster, long time lurker.
Thank you all for your generous knowledge sharing.
I burn a St. Croix Auburn and love it.
Here's my question:
The pellet stove heats my house sufficiently. My oil burner is on it's last leg, and I have a FHW system.
I've considered ditching the oil altogether and just installing an electric hot water heater for my hot water needs.
I estimate a professional oil burner install will run me $3-5,000+. An electric hot water heater maybe $1,000.
What do you all think?
