A passing thought...
I have a ranch house... in my attic - unfinished, I have string lighting... with 40 wat bulbs... its throse string lights from harbor frieght, covers 80% of the attic, right down the middle...
So I am curious...
If I turn on the attic lights... and leave them on... would that offset my heating oil usage?
I am more curious than anything, as I will be raising the temp of the attic, wouldnt heat transfer from the ceilings also drop?
I have 6" fiberglass, with 6-10" of blown in insulation - which I plan to double/triple in the next 2 years.
