Anyone set up their property with electric heat vs. furnace heat

Angelo Forzano

I have a seasonal rental down by the beach, been winterizing it the last 8 years but 3 back a plumber didn't do a good job and busted my almost new furnace I'm toying with the idea of putting in 3 or 4 well-placed electric heaters in the walls which would cost me a quarter of a new furnace. Any thoughts besides the additional cost of electric over gas. I wouldn't be using it much so I'm not really worried about that I'm in a pretty decent area with utilities costs.

Have you considered a mini-split? It would take less lineal footage of wall space and may be a better solution.
