Default NG Makes Economic Sense Only if you Have Large Consumers

To help me with the decision, please share your monthly TECO costs...roughly...

I will ONLY be using gas for cooking, in the short term, but will have plumbing pulled to water heater and clothes dryer, for flexibility.

Thanks, and regards,

OP,
You need to do an economic analysis to understand the costs for adding NG to all of the potential consumers. Using only minimum NG will not justify the costs IMHO.
The cost for an existing home will include:
1, the TECO cost to get NG to your home.
2. The NG supply lines to each consumer inside your house
3. New appliances if have electrics already installed
4. The TECO customer charge of ~$30+ per month as per responders. Does it cover the supply line to your house?

Good Luck!
