Mine was surprising low considering the extended cold spell we've experienced here in North Alabama.My bill was about $150 for straight electric resistance central heat (not a heat pump).We also used about $60 worth of kerosene in the heater that is our back up for power outages.We also use it like a fireplace in really cold weather for place to go warm up at.We keep the house at a comfortable temperature for 'house pants' and a T shirt.Most here fall for the heat pump scam that the utility company promotes.We live about 120 miles too far north of the break even line for these machines that blow cold air at you and run the compressor year round.They do heat the air to 72 degrees or so,but we are 98.6 degrees so it feels cold.We built this house in 1987 and had to special order a resistance heating central unit,same when we replaced it year before last.It blows warm air and the compressor only runs when cooling.April,May,and October it rests.This house is almost like a thermos jug,insulated,caulked,thermo pane windows,whatever we could do at the time.This winter is the first time the floors have felt cold to sock feet.Al Gore over corrected a little on the global warming doo-dah.We live in the TVA region,had nuclear power not been on the wrong side of 1970's and '80s politics along with the hydro power from the dams.Electricity would be too cheap to meter here.
