Heating and cooling in Mt Sterling homes
About two-thirds of Mt Sterling homes (about 66%) heat with electricity, such as a heat pump or electric furnace, and about 31% use natural gas. The median home was built in 1975. In a home that age, the ductwork is often older than the equipment, so when we replace a system we check that the new one is matched to the ducts it has to use.
