How do you heat your home?

i have central warming system in my flat... i think is an oil warming system or gas... i don't really know!

There is a lot of heat loss from some of our windows so I glue them up with silocone sealing and the peal it of in the spring. It helps to keep what heat we have in.

We heat with propane. Expensive!!! But, we have a fireplace too. I wish that we had a woodstove too. I told my husband that we should look into getting one and removing the fireplace. The warmth that a woodstove puts out is great. And you are so right about coking atop a woodstove. Great stuff. Merry Christmas to you!

we use a gas heater but i would love to have a wood heater

Well I feel sorry for you, in our place it is not that cold so I do not have to face this problem.

I miss our woodstove, we warmed ourselves when we cut and stacked and then we warmed ourselves with it by burning. Yeah you have to dust however that is exercise and it keeps you in touch with all your "valuables" I too cooked all day at times since there is a cooler spot that will simmer and warm you again from the inside!!We are in a trailer now. and we had a propane furnace that quit today..will get another by Monday or Tuesday...sure miss our woodstove!!

We have 2 ways of heating our house. One is the fireplace and the other is the central heating.

we dont need to heat homes..cos im from a region where the climate is mostly temperate throughout the year.....there hasnt been a drastic temperature drop too..so homes would naturally be warm ...

Actually we have a gas heater now but rarely turn it on instead we will rug up to keep warm. That is much cheaper not to mention better for the environment. When we had the farm, we did have a fireplace as well as a wood stove. Both were good but made a lot of extra work, however the bonus is as you mention that you can cook on the stove top and save on electricity.

Iam In An Apartment So Iam Not Sure

Thankfully I am living in a place where is not much cold, but some days I keep all my windows closed to keep my home warm.

We use oil, Last year we had a chimmney fire from are wood stove and havent had the money to get the chimney fixed.

The wood stove is a real pain, it heats the room it's in good. And sometimes the kitchen. But the heat rarely makes it upstairs to our bedrooms. *Whines* But- It's better than no heat at all ^_^

We heat our house with oil. I try to conserve though.

we use the wood stove..

That sounds like a good idea, don't they heat the house pretty good too? Or is it kinda restricted to one room? We have natural gas heater/furnace-not sure what it is lol, it's outside and it's actually combined with the a/c unit. The gas I'm guessing is gonna be real expensive, so I keep it set real low, about 62-64 degrees, then I bought a couple of electric spaceheaters for the bedrooms, family room. Also I use an electric blanket on my bed. We just bundle up more during the day, waiting for the gas bill to show up, hopefully it'll still be low for all my efforts to save lol.
