[quote=Anonymous]We live in a 2,000 SF older home that is poorly insulated. We have natural gas for heat and hot water. In the winter, if it happens to be a day where we did not use the washer or dryer or vacuum or stove or dishwasher, we use 24 kwh a day. So that seems to be our "baseline". In summer we use usually about 80 Kwh a day. Sometimes more on a really hot day. Sometimes less on a milder day. We replaced our A/C unit four years ago with a more energy efficient unit and the new one uses about 20 percent less electricity than the old one to cool the house. We keep the thermostat at 74 during the day and 73 at night at the height of summer. We keep the thermostat a little lower the rest of the year. [/quote]
