For heating - I went to wood pellet stove - Harman P68A. Totally automatic -far safer than any fireplace or gas furnace. Just set the temp you want the house to stay at, and it does all the work precisely. Costs me $900- $1000 dollars to heat my house from October until late April, during Garrett Co., long cold season. That price is using 4 tons of wood pellets (50 40lb bags per ton). The Gov was giving $1500 tax credit for installing a pellet stoves (qualifies as green energy) not sure if they still have that program running.
I know some that have Geothermal - they had it put in when the home was built. Putting one in after a house is built is costly, and as other have stated, takes years to get back the cost.
