no it's like 330$ for 2 months!!! ,.. but I dont have have a lot, 1200W 12hours a day in my main room and 800W 12 hours a day in cabinets, that's including the fans and everything. Just seems like my bill is high and I am curious as to what kind of kWh per day a 2 adults house goes through. thanks

Yeah I have gas heat also.......2 fridges, 2,stoves and two sets of laundry. There is a khw calculator on one of these forum pages and I tried it with the rate of .0909 per kwh and a 400w light over 18 hrs...it worked out to roughly 68 cents per day.

As long as you pay your bill and you're not a suspicious house, that energy consumption is not a red flag by any means.
