StormChaser : Ours was 355 for 5,056 sq feet. yall know we keep ac's set at 82 down, 84 up. Couldn't do it with dehumidifier! Solar screens are a HUGE factor as well.

OK hold on to your seat. $59.85 for a 3,500 one sty sq ft house. Temp set at 75. It's a long story. Would be that low going forward.

Ruger5 : 82? I don't think I could stand 82 degrees. I just turned my thermostat up to 75 from 74. I may even turn it up to 77-78.
Hopefully we get some rain this next week to help with this heat.

$300, 1700 sq ft home 😩 but our unit is very old so probably not running efficiently

WTF : How is yours so low? What's your temp set at?

StormChaser : Ours was $196 for a 3100 sq. ft. two story.

Gigix4 : There's a lot that allows us to tolerate the higher temps. High powered fans blowing cool, dry air in whatever room we're in, solar screens, dehumidifier, (we use stand up ac in bd rm for sleeping. Until rates return to more affordable rates, we're conserving. The last elect bill on this house before we moved in was 1,700. That would be well over 2,500 in today's dollars. That ain't never gonna happen.Me lounging with my coffee in front of my beloved fan 😆

WTF : Do you use the air conditioning?

Ruger5 : Don't solar screens make it kind of dark?

peppermintstick : He doesn't use air conditioning.

cbear :
Of course I do. Set at a constant 74.

cbear : Oh not at. In main part of house we have that huge picture window, and one in kitchen that allows us to look out at the sun, but the way house is situated (and the covered patio) we get no direct sun during heat of day…….only as sun is setting. That's a plus. The AC's aren't struggling to cool what the sun aint heating. These windows in the den area are amazing with solar screens. Plenty of light without the sun's awful heat. The sun room is encased in windows but we use black out curtains there in dead of summer.Two things I highly recommend - solar screens, dehumidifier.

StormChaser: Ours is $175 for one story 2400 sq Ft with pool.

WTF : You must still have a low rate.

peppermintstick : I'm telling you...he doesn't use A/C! LOL!
