Electric does not have furnaces the are electric base board strip units in each room. with there own thermostat. Electric is far more expensive than gas heating weather it by hot water or air heat.

Forced air electric is VERY expensive.
I recently switched it out for that reason.

When they say it’s electric it could be that it’s a heat pump.
Heat pumps are operated by electricity but do not heat using a heating element except for auxiliary heat.
They are 2 – 3 times cheaper to operate than straight electric resistance heating furnaces. Find out what they have.

regardless of the heat source ,a BTU of heat will cost you about the same.gas may look cheaper but if you have to use more of it you lose the savings.electric is cleaner and has the lowest maintenance cost ,you need not worry about carbon monoxide ,or flues ,but it might be lost in really cold weather ,ice storms pull down power lines, but here again your gas is controlled by electricity so you might still get cold. you might try a combination gas/electric system ,a heat pump is more efficient than resistance heat ,but loses that efficiency at temps below freezing then your gas comes on and takes up the slack.

I thought this comparison chart was interesting.

Some time before, I really needed to buy a car for my corporation but I didn’t earn enough money and could not buy something. Thank goodness my mother suggested to take the loan from reliable creditors. Thus, I acted that and was happy with my short term loan.
