| We are building a cabin, 24x17feet, on crawl space in a place that has heavy
snow in the winter. Honestly, we probably won't go there in the winter
because it is off the road too far to keep the road plowed. I want to heat
it with a wood type stove and propane logs, but code requires we have some
form of heat in the bedroom and bathroom. We were thinking some electric
baseboard heat but are hearing how incredibly expensive it is to run. We
would be using the heat in the spring and fall, probably a few times a year
when there is snow. Everything will be winterized and shut down for the
winter.
We have put the hot water heater in the crawl space, but don't feel it is
big enough to go to the expense of a forced air furnace, also in the crawl
space. The bedroom is really small, I made it big enough for walking space
around a queen sized bed so we could have more space in the
livingroom/kitchen area.
Looking for suggestions....
Thank you,
Autumn
