    Holy heck that's a lot! Mine in July-Aug this year was only 34 and that with a kid home all day so the a/c runs, he's on his power hog of a gaming computer, a pool pump running most of the time, me falling asleep with the tee vee on, and a really poorly insulated house (I don't have electric attic fans, just wind powered ones. My dream is to install a whole house fan one day...)

    Do you have an electric water heater? Stove? Really powerful dryer?

    Where are you from?

    I never thought it was weird, they send us a monthly comparison of other homes/bills in the area & mine is a little above average but I also work from home 24/7 so that never stuck out to me before lmao

    ...but now I'm questioning all things power. Maybe I can just live in the dark forever :flail:

    I am running it before it drops. I normally start it up around 10:45pm.

    I live in the Central Valley of California. During that time period I think we had like 25 days in the three digits weather wise ((and the 34 was per day, not total for the month, lol). I do know July had one of the highest streaks of over 100 degree days we've ever had. It was HOT here.

    I don't work from home, but the kid was home all day every day on his computer (three freaking cooling fans and fancy lights and some powerful thingymabobs, so I'm guessing it's not that energy efficient). And I have a refrigerator PLUS a second freezer.

    But I do have a gas dryer, stove and water heater so I think that helps the power bill?

    If that is average for your area then don't sweat it. If I saw that here I would have an audit done thinking something was pulling too much power. Does your electric company do free audits? Ours does.

    And I'll share my bill come January. With all the Christmas lights I run I pay vastly more for my December bill than I ever have during the hottest summers. I have had two dedicated circuits run for my outdoor lighting so I don't trip a breaker when they come on automatically at night :)
