Is your house entirely electric? That's a dream of mine but I don't know how realistic it is, especially in my state where there aren't good incentives

- lxmorj 8y agoNo, we have a propane fireplace that used to heat the whole house (terribly inefficient, the previous owners used it as a summer-only property) and we now run that just on colder evenings to make the house a bit cozier. We also live way out on a dead-end of the grid, so outages are common and sometimes long enough to need backup heat to keep the pipes unfrozen. I also eventually want to swap out my electric stove with propane, though my last experience with induction stoves has me considering them too. Electric conduction stoves just aren't fun to cook on... I'd love to convert the fireplace to run on hydrogen that I create myself via electrolysis one day (and have 0 emission tiki torches on the porch) but I'm not sure how safely I could pull that off! It's a bit of a moot point until I get solar installed anyways, since my power isn't coming from a clean source as it is.
