A recommendation on blown-air heating; if you can, get it to come through the floor rather than the ceiling (sorry, Taffy). Considering that hot air rises, you'll get better heating of your house with floor heating. If you have a slab foundation or very little crawl space below the floor, this won't be possible. But if you do have room, it may well be worth the extra money or griping from the contractor to have the hot air come from below.
