We own a gas heater for our home in MN, but i am not a fan of it.
- I don’t know a gas heater works good for our area.
The heater works through air duct. So every room in the home is the same temperature. Then the heater relies on forced air. That heated air rises to the ceiling more often than not. This means my flooring is super cold however my ceiling is quite warm. The forced air creates dirty air quality, cold spots, and uneven heating. It costs a lot to heat my home and it isn’t all that great. I have thought about removing that gas heater with something else. The trick is, what kind of furnace would work for my section though? I deal with serious cold, snow, and long seasons. So what is powerful enough for it. I am thinking about maybe getting a boiler system. They are said to be big, bulky, and hearty heating equipment. They last around 50 years. They don’t require much maintenance. They can hook up to the home water heater, flooring, baseboards, radiators, pool, or be a snow melts system. They are so adjustable. Isn’t that neat? The only con I have found is that they take up a lot of space when installed. I can put it in my basement no problem though, but another con is that they are initially quite high-priced. It makes sense though; You pay more to get more with this system. A boiler might be ideal for Minneapolis living. I need to find someone else who has owned this system before though; How do they like it?
