This is the cheapest electric we've ever had in Florida or anywhere. When we had a pool a few years ago the pool filter added $1 a day to our bill, but we felt the $30 a month was worth it for keep the pool clean and the chlorine just right. What is your thermostat set at? Ours is 83 and the home is very cool. Do you leave your thermostat turned low when you're not even home?
We keep our thermostat at 76 all the time when we are home. We leave it at that temperature when we go out because in this intense Florida heat, we are afraid the A/C will have a difficult time catching up to cool the house down to the comfortable (for us) 76 degrees.
