Brazos Valley Gas

Hi Harlan,

Amount due

$40.50

Due November 5, 2025 · INV-2025-10-004266

Why this bill is different

Your October bill is $4.65 higher than your September bill.

Most of the difference is gas used beyond what the weather explains. You used 27 therms this period against 20 in September.

  1. September 2025$35.85
  2. Usage beyond weather+$4.11
  3. Gas cost+$0.34
  4. Taxes and fees+$0.20
  5. October 2025$40.50
  • +$4.11

    Usage beyond the weather

    Even allowing for the cold, you used about 7 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.

  • +$0.34

    Natural gas cost

    The purchased gas adjustment — what we pay for the gas itself, passed through at no markup — rose from $0.3488 to $0.3612 a therm.

  • +$0.20

    Taxes and fees

    The city franchise fee and taxes are a percentage of the charges above, so they move with them.

  • +$0.00

    Weather

    Neither period needed much heating, so weather does not explain the difference.
