Step-daughter wants to make a bedroom and bath in her 1940's house. She has 100 amp service. Electric range and 15amp 230 volt AC unit outside. She has gas water heater, dryer and furnace. Her heating man wants to install an electric furnace with a heat pump. Finished attic about 500 square feet...bedroom and bathroom. House located in twin cites of MN..... 1 1/2 story house with kneewalls. He called me with what he wants..60 amp 15KW electric heater. It has 3 banks of 5kw. Telling me it will never need all 3 on. Also he needs 25 amp for the heat pump. I want him to go with a gas furnace with a small AC unit. The 100 amp should should handle it. If he goes with electric I'll need a 200 amp service. I broke my ankle (plate with screws) maked it tough to help her. How much natural gas will a small furnace require for line??? Or will we have problems with not enough gas for everything else. The whole basement is finished and the old furnace isn't big enough for the attic and the ducwork is too small. Thanks Joe
