Fire chief warns of holiday dangers
When the weather gets cooler, residents try to keep warm by using fireplaces, wood stoves and space heaters. But some of these can present a danger that could result in losing a home or, worse, a loved one.
What’s the most energy efficente gas stove that will heat a house?

Please my father has been reseaching and he doesn’t beleive that yahoo questions will answer so i want to prove him wrong!

energy efficiency isn’t measured by the brand name, but rather something that’s called AFUE, or Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency. A 90% AFUE furnace wastes 10% of the fuel burned as heat lost out the flue, it sounds like a lot but is actually very efficient. older units wasted as much as 30-50%. i think 96% is about the highest efficiency, but you will generally pay twice as much for a 96% furnace over a 90% furnace. it all boils down to how long you are going to keep the house, because the higher you move up the scale in efficiency, the more you pay for a smaller amount of efficiency gain
