New houses are way more energy efficient. My total for electricity, has, water, irrigation, and trash is $300 or so a month. It allows you to own a nicer house too.

My new home is very energy efficient (Green Cert/H.E.R.S.) its 4k sqft and has three A/C units, the one handles the north wing where two bedrooms, the media and game room so it stays at 78* and then central area at 77* and my bedroom area at 74* during the day and 70* at night. My electric bill is $175-$225 during the last two summers. The water bill is never more than $63.xx a month since its just my wife and I, but during the summer when I run the sprinklers it's about $175.xx, not bad compared to my last house in Allen that was built in 2000, that bitch sucked!Originally posted by SilverbackLook all you want, she can't find anyone else who treats her as bad as I do, and I keep her self esteem so low, she wouldn't think twice about going anywhere else.

I do keep the house cold though. If I am home its 69* unless its night then it drops to 67*. I command it to go to 75* on week days right before I leave for work and then to chill back down about an hour before I get home. I check it on the app and even on the hot days the house never gets over 73*
Its almost 5 years old but my last house was like 50 and it was super inefficient.Good judgment comes from bad decisions and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

Having all that stone and brick will definitely help with your power bills too.Last edited by Rick Modena; 10-11-2022, 11:28 AM.Originally posted by SilverbackLook all you want, she can't find anyone else who treats her as bad as I do, and I keep her self esteem so low, she wouldn't think twice about going anywhere else.
