Well, we had electric heaters upstairs and in the downstairs bedroom and kitchen. Cost about $400 / mo in winter time.

In the living room was a propane heater, cost about $200 / mo in winter.

A full oil tank ($450) lasts about 2 months. Smile | :)

The propane heater was really nice in one respect -- it required no electricity. The pilot light powered this doohickey that generated a micro current for the thermostat, and enough to open/close the valve. So even when the power goes out, you have heat. Highly recommended, and I'm thinking having such a system installed in the living room downstairs, though in emergencies, the kitchen burners can work to heat the room too.
