Good gravy...we only use 600 gallons wrth to heat our 2400 sq ft
house....per year....with bitter cold weather....Sure takes a lot of diesel
to warm up that steel boat!


More is used to cool it down than to warm it up. Gotta keep the
generator running to keep the AC's a blowin. How many MPG does your
house get?
