Greetings. I used Google to see if there had been any *recent* discussions of this and it appears that there hasn't.
I live in the Kansas City area and my natual gas bill level pay is $127.00. I'm betting it shoots way up once we have a REAL winter instead of the pretend winter we just had.
The wife is not too keen on our hot water heater. It was here when we moved in three years ago. She's afraid of it, frankly. For one thing, the pilot light tends to get snuffed when we run the attic fan. It 's old. It's an off brand. And in general she's just plain apprehensive of, well, US BLOWING UP for whatever reason.
We just replaced a door and several windows, as well as all of our bulbs with those nifty flourescent things, and the light bill went way down.
Either way, it's time to do something about The Hot Water Heater Issue. I'm inclined to get an electric hot water heater instead of gas. We have a
220 line nearby so the wiring wouldn't be too bad. We have 2300 square feet and four baths. Previously posts on this topic are consistent that gas should be cheaper; but is it still? What would you do?Your thoughts. Thanks for commenting.
