Business owner in town has a nice waste oil furnace. He hasn't had a gas bill in 3 years of service, outside the water heater of course. That's heating a 100 x 60 steel building, 3-4 months.Quote:

I'm also needing to do some research on large roof solar panels for charging a back up system. DC with a big battery and inverter setup seems like the way to go. But there sure seems like a lot of research to do, or again....find someone that really knows WTF they're doing with systems like that, and get help to make good purchases/ decisions.
OBC I know there's some electricians on the forum but I have a great electrician I use.
If you need waste oil let me know. The cost to pick up a 400 would be on you. We used to get paid for it by a co that recycles, but with the low oil prices, they are now charging to come get it.
checking in to see where my post whore count is at
eh, not to bad.

I think it costs a hell of a lot more than that. $20,000 or something. People finance the set-ups for 20 years.

Thanks. i know when we were quoted the monthly was 10x what we use for all utilities. Not any savings at all. YET the " climate change" folks seem to think it's an alternative to fossil fuels and others we rely on now.Quote:
