Do you use wood to heat your house on winter? or the expensive oil for heater?

Hello Bebs. It was a long time ago, or to be exactly, it was about two decades ago when we used to live in the old big house that my parents used wood and coal for cooking, but not ever since we moved into our new house. We use gas or electricity to cook. If we want to keep warm in winter, we use air-conditioner or heater. Good day.

Actually we're pretty lucky...we use electric. We used to live in a house that used wood heat and it leaves a nasty soot on everything not to mention that I was always terrified that the house would burn down. My Mom uses propane and is spending a big chunk of money to keep her house semi warm through the winter. My oldest brother uses natural gas and his is really high as well. I prefer the electric. Our apartment is really well insulated so we don't have to use much and so our electric bill isn't that high. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS**[/b]

I live in a apartment complex. in these apartments heating is done by gas.. only we have to switch on the heating & the whole apt. becomes warm. my apt. has a fire place too. we can use wood or charcoal for heating. but acctually we don't like it. so we use only gas heating.

We use wood to heat the house too, we have a fireplace and its going non-stop all winter long. Our house is big and drafty, so we need to keep it going or we'll get cold, last year we also had to buy a woodstove to help the fireplace, because we had an ice storm, and everybody's electricity went out, and if it wasn't for the woodstove we bought, we would of froze, I was also able to cook on it, my cookstove is electric, so I couldn't use it for awhile. We don't ever use oil or gas, its too expensive here. We also have a pellet stove, it burns little wood pellets, so whenever we aren't home, we can set the thermostat on it and it will keep the house decent, so our pipes don't freeze. The pellets for that aren't that cheap either.
