Hello All!
I know this might not be your typical post, but here it goes.
On a typical day my wife and I might average about $3.50 to $4.50 in terms of electrical use.
Even while my mom and sister spent two weeks with us in October, we only peaked at around $5.60ish
Once they left, we used $3.83 Thursday, November 3 and $3.01 on Friday, November 4.
Since Saturday, November 5, it has spiked to approximately $6.50 - $6.70 a day and nothing has changed on our end.
For example, we were averaging about 0.12 an hour November 3, but this past Wednesday it jumped to 0.28 an hour.
We live in central Michigan.
The house was built in 2004.
We have a gas hot water heater.
the furnace has had minimal usage and the HVAC system is turned off.
We have a 2019 SubZero fridge on the main floor an an 18 year old refrigerator in the basement.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What might be causing this spike in energy usage?
Thanks,
Gabe
