    That would be hard to guess at, from other parts of the country,, not knowing the cost per unit and the size of house,how well insulated,lots of questions to be asked,where I live in WV, right now its cheaper to heat with electric furnace and a high seer heat pump,, but that could change next year,, around here lp gas is out of sight,wouldn`t even think of considering lp

    LP gas is $2.65 gal
    Electric .074900

    Ranch style house, 2000 sq ft built in 1979
    Could probably use more insulation

    Call them back get the manual J done. If they do not know what that is get a different contractor. It is all in the other post.

    No one here is going to try and run a manual J from this board. You need to be there to do it correctly.
