We installed an Avalon Astoria (I think) in our office electrically-heated office in northern New York State and our January electric bill went from $1,500 to $500. Over the course of a heating season (around here, from October through late April), that's gonna add up to some serious beer money for our 4-person staff. So far, we've burned just under 3 tons. I'm thinking probably 5 or 6 in a typical Northwoods winter. We're burning New England Wood Pellets and paying around $240 per ton (delivered).
So, like I said, I'm impressed.
Oh, and our work environment is a lot warmer than it used to be, although we don't heat the basement anymore, which undoubtedly adds to the savings. I'm a wood stove/cast iron radiator kind of guy, so it's nice to have a place at work to warm my ass.
