Inquiring minds want to know???

• Angie Arnold Posted : 7/2/2007 6:06:37 PM Let's see:   I live in a mobile home, single wide, with two bedrooms and one bathroom.   I'm on a payment plan thing with the propane company, I pay $101 a month, no matter what.  That means that during the winter I am in debt to the company, and during the summer I have extra money built up.  The water heater and furnace and stove/oven are propane.   Electric in the winter is about $20, we don't have central air, all we have is a window shaker in the bedroom, and we only use that at night on really hot nights.  During the summer the electric bill goes up to about $50.   Water and sewer is about $10 a month, no matter what.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Sera_J Posted : 7/2/2007 6:23:47 PM I'm in a townhouse kinda small at 1200 sq. ft (large by Hawaii's standards). And I know Maui is much more expensive than we are in many ways.   .. I rarely run A/C and i have the power saver EVERYTHING and anything I can have it on.  When I run AC the cost spikes obviously and quickly.  And generally it's not that hot when you open up the windows. If it is, screw the planet, I want my AC []  just kidding! [8D] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Thalie Posted : 7/2/2007 6:27:38 PM Ranch style with an upstairs, around 2000 sqft. Two different AC and heating units (one for down, one for up).   Averages : electricity - 65 and gas - 70 for a total average of 135.   Peak for winter gas 175 (we do not heat the upstairs with the main unit often) and for summer electricity 235 (got to cool the bedrooms as well as the downstairs). We really try not to overcool or overheat (bringing it  around 75 in summer and around 70 in winter) but we have an old installation and I bet some of the good stuff gets lost in the duct system. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• cakana Posted : 7/2/2007 6:56:00 PM Well I can't brag about a $700 mortgage payment, but for our 1900 sf house, we spend about $80-$100 in the winter and about $120-$160 in the summer.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
