    How much did it cost and what rebates are available? I’d love to say fuck Enbridge.

        Damn that ain’t cheap. What’s the expected savings per year in reduced gas/hydro?

        Edit - how quick is it expected to pay itself off

          I’m not sure, likely somewhere between 5-7 years.

          We wouldn’t have done it if our furnace wasn’t shot. As a plus our A/C leaked it’s freon in the winter, so replacing it was an improvement as well.
