I have propane (we switched from wood l4 years ago when we figured out the smoke was giving me sinus infections). Propane is now wildly expensive. I spent the dry part of the fall re-caulking all the seams between inside and outside, even though we’d always thought it was healthier to have a kinda leaky inside/outside air exchange. Bought an infrared heater from some bizarre online place. It’s amazingly effective: a dumpy little box like a jumbo toaster that keeps a big 30×35’ room at an even 62 degrees – warm enough for sweater-wearing me and the animals – who never take their coats off, after all.
