My husband and roomate are from up north they keep it cold.


If the UTH is a nono I may be able to still take it back.

You need the UTH, but not without a thermostat


our electric company here is pretty high so husband is concerned about energy efficiency.

Seriously? If the house is kept that cold, then a UTH won't even move the needle on your electric bill

The UTH is the best source. But it has to be regulated
