Hi Kettle & Crumb Bakery,
Amount due
$489.31
Due March 9, 2026 · INV-2026-02-062118
Why this bill is different
Most of the difference is colder weather — your heating ran more. You used 716 therms this period against 511 last February.
Colder weather
This period had 612 heating degree days against 441 — 39% colder. At the same gas per degree of cold, that alone is about 168 therms more.
Natural gas cost
The purchased gas adjustment — what we pay for the gas itself, passed through at no markup — fell from $0.4712 to $0.4385 a therm.
Rates and charges
Since last February, the cost-of-service adjustment (GRIP) was added (+$21.99).
Usage beyond the weather
Even allowing for the cold, you used about 37 therms more than your home usually does. Common causes: a higher thermostat, a new gas appliance, guests, or a leak. If you ever smell gas, leave and call (979) 555-0199 from outside.
