According to the old saying, that's exactly what a man's home is--his castle. And if your castle happens to be the kind most people buy, namely, the six-room size, there are some things you ought to know about electric heat. First of all, you should know that Commonwealth Edison has dramatically reduced electric heat rates over the past ten years. What's that mean? Simply that yqu should expect to pay less than $200 a year to heat an average six-room house with proper insulation. 1 Then, you should know there's a definite trend to electric heat. Example: Over 25,000 families in Northern Illinois are heating electrically, and more than 5,000 new families are joining them every year. That many people feel the price is small compared to the many benefits of modern electric heat. No matter what size castle you have.
