No shit ezra! Plus we live in the porn capital of the world so its hot here anyways!

Per month? mine was ~$420 per month in my old house

oh.. that's big! but no surprise it is really heat as hell these days. good thing my bill hasn't reached that high yet..

ac's are a killer, I got one of those portable ones and they eat electricity like crazy

that's my bill too ........... for the whole year though ;)

I pay about $40.00 a month

485? WOW thats a lot

:thumbsup

Ok My $200 bill doesnt seem so bad now

During our heat wave last week if I would have had A/C my bill would probably be that high too.
But since I do not have A/C I roasted and my E. bill is only $32

Time to conserve electricity and to use your old lamp. lol

nobody asked you to move there.

The electric companies are making a killing with this horrible weather. :(

The bills are huge, but it beats melting!

485, damn that's a lot, I thought my bills were big

How much are swamp coolers these days?

yay...thats' too much

looks like you are going to have to get a job.
no more 24/7 jerking off for you.
yes boss.
no boss.
you are right boss.
what ever you say boss.
why, certainly boss, I'll kiss your ass.

So I guess $150 a month in Florida is not too bad.

And I had the nerve to bitch about my $336 bill here in Houston in a similar thread a few days ago. I am so ashamed :firehair

Time to go out and buy a brand new energy efficient air conditioner. It will pay itself off by the end of summer.

ouch!
i haven't gotten mine for this month yet. i'm guessing it will be around 85.00

wow that's crazy you should have an energy audit done onm your house to see where you can improve on things

damn big bill.

that's a bigbill, I pay about 250 euros each month, but that's for two apartments

Exactly...

My pad is in Pasadena... just as hot as SFV
1790 sq ft home . A/C was broke when I bought house... still is!
Swamp Cooler has been running overtime...
shut off pump at sundown or if gets cloudy or thunderstormy (hey.. I think I made up a new word..) to keep from building moisture in house.

2 window fans at opposite end of house blowing out to help cool airflow.

My bill wont be over 125... and everyone that enters the house says
"Damn it feels nice in here"

PS. Oh Yeah.. the swamp cooler will cost you less than 500 - you will save that in less than 3 months...

And I was bitching about the $52 bill I got last week. Went up from $35 last month. Takes a shitload of energy to run 2 window ac's 24/7 :)

Turn of the a/c and open the windows

Kinda hard to do when the temp is running 90-100 every day and the heat index is always 100-110. I would fry lol

Edit - And unlike the desert or where ever - this aint no fucking dry heat :1orglaugh

A swamp cooler will use 1/4 the amount of electricity as an AC and if it is the right size it will keep it as cool as an AC.

thats alot..

My AC is broken. Saves money but I nearly die every day.

Damm that sucks

One thing I love about living in the desert with it's dry heat. I have two swamp coolers (one for each floor of the house) and my last bill was only $401. That was during our heatwave in which about 20 people died from the heat.

mine used to be like that

then I had the windows on the front of my house tinted (my house faces west) and replaced both the upstairs & downstairs AC units with newer high efficiency units. The bill dropped to $250 the very next month

Ours was about $400 for one month , it'll be more on the next bill which in Mexico, comes every 2 months...so the next one will be well over $800 ! I grew up in Phoenix and LOVE the swamp cooler! Wish we could have one here, but living right on the ocean there is just too much humidity.

We keep our house at 72 and it's 3200 sq. ft. and my bill is around $200. We work and play from home, so it's 72 all the time. How is it so much more there?
