Last month SECO installed the new smart meter.
On their website, last month included both the old meter and new meter.
As a result, there were two "usage" reads.

The average temp from June to July increased from 81 to 83 degrees.
(according to their website)
But when you add both meter's usage, our usage went up 100%.

No Way!!

Any body else??
Thanks in advance.
Check if by mistake your hvac fan has been switched to always on. Or is your hvac running nonstop? Check your thermostat.
I would definitely call seco, 100% usage even if temps was 100 up from 80s wouldn’t cause that much increase.
