Just a suggestion. If you have a circuit breaker, and your not using your washer and dryer (if they are on 1 circuit switch or separate) turn them off if not in use. This can help cut your KW. It won't hurt your switch box, as long as you don't turn on and off all day long. Then you can cause ruin. Best time to wash is after 6pm, and dry add a thick towel that is dry to your things. Instead of 2 hours to dry, depending on what your drying like blankets or sheets, about 1 hour at most. Clothes, jeans, other items add a thick dry towel to your dryer, and it won't spin a long time. Cut your time in half. Just some old advice by people who do this.

Lies, the temperatures were only cold for a couple of weeks. This is gross negligence and fleecing of the American people. An elderly's bill going from $100 to $900 is shameless and devastating to someone on a FIXED income, especially if they have not modified their temperature usage.
