There has to be a better way.

They are energy star rated and on its own digital thermostat that can be controlled with built in timer and temperature. Plus we heat with oil and were told that we will use less oil since this will help heat the room it is in. I was also told that if you put it on the first floor since heat rises you use less heat on the 2nd floor too.

Our little yorkie is too small to leave out and about in the house when we are not home (I have a spiral staircase that I am very scared he could fall down unsupervised). I gate him in the kitchen when we are not home which has has a high window that will not heat the area where his bed is (he actually has 3 beds in the kitchen... LOL).

I will keep you posted as to how much our electric bill increases. I am not too worried about it. Plus this increases the value of our home so even if we dont use it the value is there.
