Royse, I'm a total electric fan for house and radiant electric for the few times I go to workshop.
I did help a friend a few weeks ago who installed an electric furnace for a guy 3 years ago. Then the guy installed an outside boiler. He claimed he invested $14,000 in his wood boiler. I was only there a short time, just long enought to wire in a second thermostat to the furnace blower so the fan would blow air on the boilers inside heat exchanger.
I saw his boiler temp was 165 degrees. I measured the water coming in to the house, about 100 ft from boiler, it was only 130 degrees. Temp drop across coil in house was less than 20 degrees. I'm thinking this guy spent $14000 to heat the ground between boiler and house. What a fool.
Not to mention, guy claims his boiler eats loads of wood. When he lost power, he discovered his generator wouldn't power up furnace. I didn't want anything to do with genny problems, so we got out of there. BTW, electric furnace has four 5KW electric strips, 20 amps 240v each. George
