Heating: Forced air vs baseboard
I am considering purchasing a new home and a couple of the places I'm looking at has baseboard heating. I haven't seen these homes yet so I don't know if they are electric or gas. I really don't have any experience with baseboard heating so I'm wondering what the CP collective can tell me about baseboard heating.
Would you prefer forced air or baseboard? What are things to consider with baseboard heating? Is our climate decent for baseboard heating? Do baseboard heaters have a higher fire hazard?
Please tell me what you know about them and what you prefer, if you've experienced them and/or forced air.
