So, I’m extremely confused about my recent gas bill from National Grid (use Con-Ed for electric). For this past 33 day period, I was charged $80 for 37 therms. I barely used my heat that entire time (read: once or twice), so presumably hot water and cooking gas should be the only charges, and $80 seems extremely high for that…plus, I didn’t use my oven – only the burners.

Does anyone else have experience with odd National Grid bills, or have any ideas as to why it’s so high? This is only my third month dealing with them, and so far they have been supremely unhelpful over the phone.

I appreciate any advice!

PS – I don’t know my type of boiler per se, but it is small-ish with an electric control panel.
