There are a number of factors that cause differences in energy bills, so comparing your bill to someone else's is like comparing apples to oranges. The ages of major appliances, especially refrigerators and air conditioners, can make a dramatic difference in your bill. In addition, if your house leaks air like a sieve while your neighbor's house was just weatherized and insulated, you will have much higher heating and cooling bills. Other factors that can result in significant differences in bills are the number and kinds of lighting fixtures, thermostat settings for heating and cooling, the number of loads of laundry, old refrigerators out in the garage, and hobbies which result in electricity use.
That said, your heating and cooling system can be one of the biggest sources of wasted energy in your home. Heating and cooling systems devour nearly half of the energy consumed in a home, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. Research shows that 90% of the homes in America are 60% or less energy efficient. You could be paying more than necessary to heat and cool your home. Inefficient and underperforming systems can also compromise your comfort.
THE AVERAGE HOMEOWNER EXPERIENCES UP TO 40% LOSS OF THEIR HOME'S ENERGY.
