    A proper electric heater runs within 10% the cost of a gas heater. On either side of that line depending on how much xcel is charging.

    They drop the electric price nearly in half in the winter. But it would be better if it were pud and not a state wide monopoly

    Usually places with baseboard heaters are rentals with terrible insulation.

    The space heaters I was referring to ar the oil filled radiant heaters by honeywell
