Formula
1 KilowattHour = 3,412 BTU
Looks like almost 25KW. You will go bankrupt heating your house with electric.
You should not need a electric furnace that big to heat your home because you really cannot use a gas BTU conversion because your furnace is probably to big for your house to start with.
No a heat pump and a electric furnace will be cheaper.
Do a Google for that information. To many variables for me to calculate.
