How much $$ are we talking. Say to replace a 50K furnace and to bury PE line in S.Wis. Doesn't electricity cost twice propane?

Circus: As far as how much, We built a 1500 sq ft house in late 2005. The bid for a 90+ propane furnace and central air was $4500. We started checking the price of Geo after the regular insulation was installed, so we didn't use the foam type insulation. The average price we received from three different installers was $13,000. We finally found one in Pinkneyville Illinois that put a three ton geo for $9500. This included three 150 foot wells, where others had insisted on trenched loops. The guy that we used would do only drilled wells. Said that made things much simpler. We are in South Central Illinois, and are spending about the same for electricity as before we moved from an old double wide, but we have stopped burning 10 loads of firewood and 700 gal of propane. So we are very pleased with the investment return. It also puts excess heat into the hot water heater. enough so that it was a month before I realised that I had forgot to turn the water heater on after finishing installing it.

Sound great. I take it it was the double wide that burned 10 loads of firewood and 700 gal of propane. Doubt your new home would use 400 gal of propane.
