Originally posted by robtcorl Nearly half the homes in the U.S. use natural gas for heat, and they could pay an average $746 this winter, 30% more than a year ago. Those in the Midwest could get particularly pinched, with bills up an estimated 49%,
Well aren't you a little ray of sunshine this morning!
Can you guess from that what we heat with?
The good news is that we just had a new furnace put in. The other one was 27 years old. Furnaces don't fail in June or July. For some reason they wait until January or February so we were preemptive and put a new one in. It now seems like really good timing as the new one is not only more efficient, it got us a $300.00 bill credit from the gas company.
