A few days ago I came across a real estate listing for a beautiful old home in the south-end of Halifax and the heating costs are said to be $7,850.00 a year (<a href="http://www.realtor.ca/propertyDetails.aspx?propertyId=11148223&PidKey=1715214229" target="_blank">www.realtor.ca/<u></u>propertyDetails.aspx?<u></u>propertyId=11148223&PidKey=<u></u>1715214229</a><<a href="http://www.realtor.ca/propertyDetails.aspx?propertyId=11148223&PidKey=1715214229" target="_blank">http://www.realtor.<u></u>ca/propertyDetails.aspx?<u></u>propertyId=11148223&PidKey=<u></u>1715214229</a>>).  I know that a fuel oil bill of $7,000.00 to $10,000.00 a year is not all that uncommon for some of these older properties, but I still have a hard time wrapping my head around these kinds of numbers.<br>





<br>
After a relatively mild start to the month our weather has turned notably colder and so our electrical meter has been a little more active of late.  For the first twenty-seven days of October we've consumed 27.3 kWh for space heating purposes or an average of 1.0 kWh a day.  Total cost to date this heating season: $3.39.<br>
