Re: A What...?
Could you tell me where you found a heating system for your home that doesn't use electricity in some way? If it's working for you up in MA, it's got to be able to handle the cold in PA.
No heat in winter = freeze to death.
Electricity is a utility....
PS, a wood stove isn't going to cut it. I have one, and while it's nice, the whole Northeast doesn't have enough trees to keep us all warm all winter..... |

| I have natural gas heating, and I'm sure you could make a gas heater easily enough w/o electricity if you really had to. My point is not that I don't need or want it, it's that just because it's a utility doesn't mean it is necessary to life.

Philly burbs | You might get that heater to fire off, but how are you going to move the heat through your house?
Hot air needs an electric blower, baseboard heat needs a circulation pump, both are run by electricity.... |
