You'll be given advice by your doctor about how much you should move your leg and when you can put weight on it. It takes around six to eight weeks for a minor fracture to heal. You'll probably need to use crutches or a wheelchair during this time, until it's possible to put weight on the leg again.
Oil furnace cost is roughly $2,500 to $5,000 installed, but similar to gas furnace prices, it's not unheard of to spend $10,000+. The average propane furnace cost is $3,000 to $6,000 installed. Again, though, costs could reach or exceed $10,000. If installing a high-efficiency furnace, it might be necessary to upgrade the chimney at a cost of $500 to $2,000.
Cost of propane vs natural gas. The cost comparison between propane and natural gas is much easier to determine because unlike electricity, natural gas and propane can be directly compared based on their individual BTU ratings. Letâs assume the cost for natural gas is $15.00 per 1,000 cubic feet. This means that $15.00 will purchase approximately 1.03 million BTUâs of energy. This would be equivalent to 11.26 gallons of propane. At $2.50 per gallon of propane, natural gas would be a more cost effective energy solution. Breaking it down even further, natural gas needs to be more than $28.00 per 1,000 cubic feet for propane to be a more cost effective energy solution (provided the cost for propane is $2.50 per gallon).
