I think space heaters are a really expensive way to heat your house. My bge bill is nearly $500 but my house is 2-3 times your house in sqft. Most of my heating is gas.

Mine isn't an end unit, so that helps keep costs down, not sure where yours is.

It depends, they can be really efficient if the only place you're heating is the room you're in. Electric blankets can be more efficient.

With that said, when it gets cold cold, make sure you're heating your whole house so you don't freeze pipes.

It can be more efficient to heat just one room in your house. But they said they're using multiple. Per BTU an electric space heater is going to cost you more than using gas heating.

Depends on what they mean by multiple. I personally would say multiple to say I have one in a few rooms to not carry around versus multiple on at the same time
