Another thought that may or may not serve well is the possibility of solar (tile/shingle ?) roof covering. This would depend on the orientation of your roof, local power rates, etc. & may not be a good choice for you in your situation. But it could kill two birds with one stone. I had solar installed at my place (all electric except for two propane powered, tankless water heaters) going on three years ago and haven't paid a cent since for power. It should pay for itself in six years. Depending on the economics, it might be a consideration for you and add to resale value. When I put my system, the top tier charge for electricity here was in the low $.40/Kwh. In three years it has increased to $.55/Kwh. The local power company just continues to put the screws to the customers.
