Wow, and I was upset about our bill for the month ended 9/06. It was the highest we've received in our two years here, $169. Last year's bill for the same period was $142 and we were here both months all the time. We have an all-electric Lantana and use the oven and range daily.
I too think that it must be the air conditioner usage that drives up the bill. We keep the thermostat at 79 deg. when we're here and 83 when gone in the summer and 55 when gone during the winter. When company comes we'll set it at 77 at night to make them feel more comfortable. We moved here from south Florida and used the same settings there for seven years without any problem whatsoever with mold or mildew.
