Gas & Electricity

[Bill Walker]

Combined winters bills are around 900 per quarter, but summers are more like 300 per quarter.

We are with the Co-Op which was considerably cheaper than our previous supplier British gas.

how many quarters are there in your year ?

Around a 1,100 sq ft duplex. Electricity runs about $150/month and gas is usually around $40/month. £92 & £25 per month respectively.

Wow that sounds expensive for a warm part of the world or is Texas colder than I thought? How many in the household?

I pay £100 combined per month for an average detached house.

2 people in the house. In the winter it's usually pretty cheap (combined $150ish). Summertime can get really expensive as you're pretty much running the AC 24/7 (combined $250ish). The increase is electricity.

No chance of Solar panels or a wind turbine in your back yard(!!) then?

Yeah when its over 100 F multiple days summer its a necessity. This summer was mild by comparison (only hit 100+ 15 times or so), but a couple years ago we hit 100+ 79 times. Hell, its October and the high today here is 93 F.

£45 gas and £46 electricity. 2 of us living in a 3 bedroomed house. In credit with electricity but we use the tumble dryer more in winter so no doubt the credit will be gobbled up. Both of us out at work all day mon-fri so will only have the gas central heating on a few hours a night when needed. Washing machine about 4 times a week and the shower is electric

Do you cook on an open fire? Or like GDM always out for dinner?
