What source of heat do you have for your home? I hate it...it's gas powered water baseboard. Half of our house is warm...no idea why, and they can't tell me either.

Do you have a gas or electric stove? Any preference? electric..I've always had electric, so I guess that's what I'm used to.

Do you have a fireplace? An electric one in the den we've never used.

What temperature do you keep your house at during the winter? 65 when we are home and 60 at night. It's hard to heat a house when you feel like you're throwing money out the window.

How do you like your shower/bath water?

What source of heat do you have for your home? Gas

Do you have a gas or electric stove? Electric Any preference? I prefer Electric, had it 95% of my life. I don't like the way Gas cooks and I hate the idea of a flame being there.

Do you have a fireplace? Yes, it's downstair's in our walkout basement and it's a gas fireplace. I use it every morning when I'm downstair's while the boys play.

What temperature do you keep your house at during the winter? 71 Degrees F. And I'm still cold. Overnight it goes down to 66 Degrees F.

How do you like your shower/bath water? Hot hot hot! During my shower I have to make it hotter at least once. During my bath I drain some of the water to put hotter water in about two times.

What source of heat do you have for your home? We replaced the old oil furnace with a gas furnace a couple years ago.

Do you have a gas or electric stove? Any preference? Gas. I like cooking on a gas range and it came in super handy during the power outages we had last week.

Do you have a fireplace? A wood burning fireplace in the front room that we never use (I love it anyway. It's rock with a rough looking wood mantle.) We have a gas fireplace in the family room.

What temperature do you keep your house at during the winter? 68 during the day and 65 at night.

How do you like your shower/bath water? Hot, but not too too hot.

What source of heat do you have for your home? We don't have central heating (or AC for that matter) the homes are just not built for it. We use a few electric oil radiators when it gets really cold.

Do you have a gas or electric stove? Any preference? We have a gas stove, no oven. The gas comes in scary gas cylinders that I get slightly scared of when it comes times to change them. no options though it's just how it's done here. I have a tiny electric toaster oven that I use for baking. I prefer gas.. but would rather have it piped in properly.

Do you have a fireplace? No

What temperature do you keep your house at during the winter? I sadly have very little control over the temperature in the house. When it's a cold day it's really cold inside and when it's hot it's hot.. we do out best with space heaters and ACs but that is really all I can do.

How do you like your shower/bath water? I have to turn a switch on to heat the water before taking a shower, it probably saves a ton of energy. I like a warm but not hot shower.

What source of heat do you have for your home? We have blue heat radiators (like oil filled, but they´re filled with special gel, supposedly its more efficient)

Do you have a gas or electric stove? Any preference?Gas, I prefer gas, much more controlable. Our gas is butane gas cylinders too, we don´t have mains gas in our town, so I have to change them occasionally.

Do you have a fireplace? No, but I´d love one

What temperature do you keep your house at during the winter?19º during the day and 16º at night. 67ºf/61ºf

How do you like your shower/bath water? The hotter the better in winter, and cool in summer.
