How much is an average utility bill?
A. This varies on consumption and number of occupants. One thing for sure, power and water rates keep getting more expensive. I have a customer in a 3 bed/2ba 1400 s.f., single occupant, central airconditiong that turns of the a/c when he’s away, he averages $150-$180 per month on power, $45 water, $22 phone and $50 for basic cable. But if I have a family, for example in a 2000s.f. house with 3 kids, power is about $450++, water is $65, with premium channels $75++, phone with all features $25 and high speed DSL internet at $70 or cable modem at $60. But with the recent power hike, add another $40 on top of your power bill. The best advice I can offer is that if you want to save power, don’t leave your AC running all day. The AC is what will bring your power bill high. Have ceiling fans installed also. And obviosly, if you want a big house, it will be more expensive with power. I have a customer with 4000 sqaure feet house paying over $1000++ each month. Also, you will need to personall
