geez - 782 is four months of electric in Dallas (using a set payment per month program - 3,000 sq ft brick home)how does that compare with NH? Oh and our monthly gas bill is about 20.00. ( also averaged) tomorrow is will be down to 65 degrees. // silly time at the computer - hope it does not get worse for you.

I moved here from Dallas after living there 12 years (in McKinney actually). It’s ridiculous. This is a 1900 sq ft home and brand new. I just haven’t been able to figure out, what the heck is the difference? I’ve got a propane furnace with central air ductwork. I think I had natural gas in the home in McKinney. I don’t recall my heating bills ever getting over something like $50-$100 for a new 2400 sq ft home there.

One thing, there isn’t ‘city’ gas like there is in Texas. Everyone has his own heating system, whether it’s propane or oil or even wood stove.

Sure it gets a heck of a lot colder, but $782 in a month? For the last year, I’ve been feeling like some folks have a scam running here.

In fact, I just toured a new home in Colorado, south of Breckenridge, where the seller mentioned the propane bill was maybe half of what we pay here.
