There is the fuel source (oil/gas) which you mentioned but also the type of system (hot water baseboard, steam, forced air) all of which have their advantages/disadvantages which might influence your thinking. 

So little pressure for older inventory to appreciate.BTW, if you are savvy with the area, how would you choose between Chapel Hill (student housing, good brand), Morrisville/Cary (good schools and central) and Raleigh (growth)?

I got a hose and nozzle set up for my pressure washer on ebay for cheap, works great, now when i do a rehab, its part of the program to jet out the lateral, 

What if you could measure air temperature every 10 seconds to minimize heating and cooling costs?

I'm willing to accept less, he wants to wait for more.The home is located near a huge shopping area and an Air Force base, and down the street from a decent elementary school.

The home has central air.  

Would an air scrubber do anything?  

Is there heavy furniture against the wall, which could inhibit air circulation against a cold wall?

Account ClosedElectric baseboard heat works the same manner as the electric resistance heat coils in the electric forced air furnaces with which you are acquainted.  

I roll my eyes when some dude with a pressure washer thinks he is worth 300 bucks for 3 hours of work holding a hose.
