Very nice! What temp does your basement usually run at? Do you find you have the heaters stay on extra to keep up with the temp differential?

Now during winter my temp is about 58 down there. I keep my Tanks about 79 to 80, yeah they run more in the winter. Summer my basement is about 65. But my electric bill isn't too bad.

Pretty much the same here with my basement.I live in an old house with no central air and heating so the upper floors get very hot during the warmer months and the basement stays around 75-80 thus there is no need to have the tank heaters on during those times.

The other side of my basement is finished. This side is my side, my kids have a play room on the other half.
Fair trade haha
