[quote=Anonymous]Yikes. Here are the steps I would take: 1. confirm that the bill is based on actual meter readings for the past several months. Since PEPCO has upgraded most everyone to smart meters, this is probably the case bu it is worth confirming. 2. Call a master electrician to make sure your panel is wired appropriately. And do not do this yourself, as if there is stray voltage it isn't something you want to be around. 3. Call HVAC to have check your system(s). 4. Everything insulated? 5. 72-73 is pretty darn high to keep the heat in the winter. Just sayin. We keep things at 65-66 and pay about $300 a month max electric to heat 4,500 SF. 6. Are you in some type of fixed-price contract for electricity with this supplier? The spot price of electricity fluctuates and has gone down over the past couple of years. Might be worth seeing if you can switch back.[/quote]
