Hi Harlan,
Amount due
$89.26
Due February 5, 2026 · INV-2026-01-004266
Why this bill is different
You used less gas, or gas cost less. You used 107 therms this period against 133 in December.
Less usage than expected
You used about 36 therms less than the weather predicts — that saved you money.
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 10 therms more.
Taxes and fees
The city franchise fee and taxes are a percentage of the charges above, so they move with them.
Weather adjustment
The weather adjustment credit went from $0.0142 to $0.0187 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.
