Space heaters, only in individual rooms at night. I set the house to 55 (no real cold spots to worry about), and keep space heaters in the bedrooms.

If you own, by far the best bang for your buck now is an electric heat pump and solar, which has a longer payback period, but I highly doubt we are going to see electric go down at any point, but even a heat pump is a great starting point.

Other then that, wood stoves if you have land, but not my cup of tea.

I think 55 on the oil heat and space heaters where needed sounds perfect. Thanks for sharing.

Yep. Honestly it's probably hit or miss which is cheaper to run all the time right now. If possible, I would do anything I could have changed your heating situation
