    heating bills runs close to $800 a month

    You are spending WAY too much per month on heat. Upgrade the insulation in your home and seal air leaks.

    Also, do not use resistive heat. It is the most expensive heating solution by a wide margin.

      Trust me, I have been eyeing a heat pump for awhile now.

      The house is close to 4k square feet, but I do have 10 people living there so it is being well utilized. I also live in Alaska so we get entire months of sub 20 temperatures.

      It is still hard to deal with when you get that fuel bill.
