Electricity is the least popular form of heating in Canada, by far, dwelling are heated with gas furnace. This, and my supply prices are contractually locked for the next 5 years regardless of the actual market price.
> Besides, I live in Seattle which is next to Canada, and this solution would work fine in the PNW climate, which includes Vancouver B.C.
Come on, Seattle/lower mainland look like the tropics compared to the rest of Canada.
- WalterBright 7y agoMost of the Canadian population is within 30 miles of the US border or something like that.
- alacombe 7y agoBecause the weather in Seattle is just like the weather in Calgary... or even Toronto !
- WalterBright 7y agoAverage temp in Toronto is 46.6 degrees Farenheit. It's 52 degrees in Seattle. Source: google
- alacombe 7y ago... and there is a 2deg C average global temperature between the last ice age and now. Averages are irrelevant. Seattle has more constant temperature, whereas Toronto tends to min-max, and on top of that, you took the southernest Canadian city. But sure, continue thinking Canadian weather is the same as Seattle...
