Did you know? There are the 4 key factors that will determine how high or low your business’s natural gas bill may be.
1 – Usage
Have you adjusted your thermostat setting? The primary factor that impacts your monthly bill is usage – the amount of energy used during a billing cycle. We recommend 68 degrees
2 – Days Billed
Fewer days in the monthly billing cycle typically results in a lower energy bill, compared to a billing cycle with more days. Your bill provides this detail.
3 – Weather
A couple of days of extreme weather – hot or cold – can make heating and cooling equipment run longer, increasing energy use.
4 – Changes at the office
More people at work often means you may adjust the thermostat more frequently to make them comfortable.
Next time your bill arrives, take a few minutes to consider the impact these factors may be having on your bottom line.
