I won't be suprise if next bill is close to 1G.

I don't keep my home like a meat locker, more like 78 to 79 even daytime since my parents are 'visiting' me.
It is a well insulated new 3500 sqf single story home. I keep the remote thermostat so that I would know when to open windows night time, say 75 or below. I didn't have whole lota chance to do that....

I could use some advice.

Lower temperatures here than you are seeing, but what is more notable is the cost of energy. We had 30 C a few times in the past month, 88 F. 6000+ sf home, 22 foot ceilings. Central air is set on 75F 24 hours.

Last two months usage was 1964 kwh, half of yours. No surprise there. However, my usage charge was $118.62 CDN, before transit levies, for the 1964 kwh.

That advice you wanted? Move north.
