Its not something that I would do, and I’m pretty much a cheap prick. Buy your gas and electric from ECNY, and keep the heat at 60 degrees all winter. Thats what I did in my college years when I made like 9 bucks an hour. ---

its electric baseboard heating. I guess last winter the electric bill was around 300 a month and they kept it very cold. We dont do laundry that much so the gains would be next to nothing. I guess the plan is to keep the house as cold as possible and only have heat in the bedrooms. heater blanket ftw. ---

I am trying to pay off all of my bills before next summer, not have $$$ utility bills. but yes, being ‘poor’ does suck. ---

Moisture isn’t really an issue since WNY winters, especially if you have forced air heat, are extremely dry. No this is stupid, that is why there is a whole building code section dedicated to dryer venting… IMC 504.6 ---

so there is going to be intermittent releases of large amounts of water vapor into a space that is otherwise minimally heated and only then by electric heat… this is a recipe for mold behind every couch, curtain and corner… ---
