Hi Brazos Linen Service,

Amount due

$1,164.96

Due February 5, 2026 · INV-2026-01-119004

Why this bill is different

Your January bill is $76.15 higher than your December bill.

Most of the difference is colder weather — your heating ran more. You used 1,950 therms this period against 1,802 in December.

  1. December 2025$1,088.81
  2. Weather+$70.72
  3. Usage beyond weather+$5.55
  4. Weather adjustment−$7.21
  5. Taxes and fees+$7.09
  6. January 2026$1,164.96
  • +$70.72

    Colder weather

    This period had 529 heating degree days against 486 — 9% colder. At the same gas per degree of cold, that alone is about 137 therms more.

  • −$7.21

    Weather adjustment

    The weather adjustment credit went from $0.0124 to $0.0161 a therm. It evens out the delivery part of your bill when weather strays from normal (505 degree days is normal for this period), softening bills in extreme winters.

  • +$7.09

    Taxes and fees

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

  • +$5.55

    Usage beyond the weather

    Even allowing for the cold, you used about 11 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.
