Someone in the know would have to run the numbers, but it's not all that obvious that burning hydrocarbons for heat locally is worse than converting them to electricity remotely, charging the battery and then heating an electric coil with that electricity. The first scenario is nearly 100%...

An ethanol heater that is properly integrated into the system, by which I mean it injects heated air right into the vents and it exhausts to the outside would be a perfectly sensible solution. All the kWh's that go toward resistive heating are mostly not CO2-free and they are better utilized...

That $1300.00 MCU has the word "REMAN" in the description. It most likely is a re-manufactured (refurbished) unit, thus the lower than usual price. Did they say anything to that effect to you?
