Regulatory & Important Links

Colder weather typically increases natural gas consumption as heating systems and other gas appliances in the home work harder. These may include your furnace, water heater, stove, fireplace, pool heater, and clothes dryer.

Although you may not have made any noticeable changes in your household, your overall use of gas appliances may have varied during this time. For example, increased thermostat settings, more frequent use of a gas stove, or additional demand on your water heater can all impact consumption. While we cannot determine the exact reason for the increase, you can better understand your usage by monitoring how your gas appliances are used and periodically checking your meter to track consumption trends. Instructions on how to read the meter are available on our website at How to Read My Meter – SiEnergy

Like many utilities, SiEnergy’s Gas Cost Recovery Adjustment (GCRA) is a pass-through charge. This means we do not profit from the cost of natural gas. The price we pay in the wholesale market is passed directly to customers without markup. In addition to higher market prices, colder weather often increases overall gas usage, which can also impact the total amount on a bill.
