What sort of cubic feet of gas was that?

My house used 22 CcF on the last billing cycle and that's for the heater, gas range, and water heater.

Mine was over 300 bucks but I have a larger home.

We don't set the stats up very high. The Mrs. likes it cooled. I just put on a sweatshirt.

Check your attic insulation. That is problem area 1. I'd go with two layers of 6" batt.

But what is your t stat set at? Lower it

That seems WAY too high. We’ve got 2 gas heaters, a gas water heater, and stove and it’s never got over $125 during the winter. And that’s being generous

Similar sqft

Damn. I thought ours was high. Just got it and it's $189. 2800 sq ft house and we have 2 furnaces (one for each floor). Everyone kept saying gas was cheaper than electricity. Sure the hell didn't feel like it.

REAL QUESTION:

Not to hijack but if I smell some natural gas outside by the meter...is that normal? It's not strong say if I walked a few feet away but I smell it about a foot or two away from the meter outside.

I haven't gotten very far in the thread yet, but the total price of your bill is irrelevant.

You need to know your usage, usually measured in CCF (100 cubic feet).

Mine usually runs between $25-35, but my most recent bill was right at $100. House is about 2,000 sq ft. I guess we ran the heat a lot during the snow day. That's by far the highest it had ever been. I'm expecting next month to be higher with as cold as it's been.

I have a gas stove and dryer with 2 water heaters... My gas bill is just under $100. My home is 3,000 sq ft and my wife cranks the heat when its cold outside.


You may wanna call and have your meter checked out.
