Hi Harlan,
Amount due
$80.01
Due December 6, 2025 · INV-2025-11-004302
Why this bill is different
Most of the difference is colder weather — your heating ran more. You used 93 therms this period against 37 in October.
Colder weather
This period had 322 heating degree days against 96 — 235% colder. At the same gas per degree of cold, that alone is about 44 therms more.
Usage beyond the weather
Even allowing for the cold, you used about 12 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.
Natural gas cost
The purchased gas adjustment — what we pay for the gas itself, passed through at no markup — rose from $0.3612 to $0.3948 a therm.
Rates and charges
Since your October bill, delivery (distribution) rates changed (−$1.74).
