      Yeah we had propane boiler heat. We spent close to $5K one year keeping the house at 60. So we switched to wood, then upgraded to coal and now to Pellets. We realized that without a teenager to help with the hauling of wood or coal that we didn't want to keep it up. He will be moving out eventually. The Pellets are something I even I can do myself without help. And is so much cleaner. It is more than the coal was though.

              It's supposed to be 36C here on Friday and Saturday... might change though as it's still a few days away. It was only 22C today.

                  Ewww, that is quite a bit worse than here. Is it dry there? Very humid here. Heat index is always pushing towards 40+

                      Dry heat, so the washing is mostly dry in 10 minutes.

                      Very humid here. Heat index is always pushing towards 40+

                      Pretty gross when you add heat

                          Welcome to living in the jungle where nothing is ever dry. You get used to it.

                              How old is the house you are in? When was it built?

                                I need an office that looks/sounds like that... and is warm enough to use.

                                  Don't know the details but between the 1500s and the 1700s. From the construction I am pretty sure it is on the latter side. Probably early 1700s. It is right downtown in the oldest European colonial city in the New World, so everything down here is ancient.

                                    VERY easy to get large office space in this style down here with the pool, fountain and everything.

                                          I'm amazed at how well taken care of it is. It doesn't look like there is a lot of wear on the building from the pictures you've taken.

                                            A farmer friend of mine built a large wood burning stove outside his barn and uses ducking to pipe the heat into the building. It's amazing, he can keep that building at 70 degrees all winter long, and the wood use is surprising small for the amount of space he's heating.
