NewGig, can you give me more information on the mini-split? I've actually never heard of one. Our primary heat source is wood (wood stove) but we rely fairly consistently on electric baseboard heat in each room for when we're lazy, or when we want to warm up the house in the morning before we start a fire. But that electric heat is SO expensive!!! The mini-split sounds like a great alternative.
We also have propane, which heats our Rinnai water heater.
Can you give me a range of how much the mini-split is, or might be for a 700 sq. ft. house?
