Here is the actual usage and CMP charge using heat pumps as a primary heat source. Hope this settles it. Details in post.
This is my CMP usage and estimated charge for the past month. With the last three days I’ll be around $300. For context, I have a 3,000sqft home and heat with heat pumps primarily. I’ll use oil if the temperature drops below 15°. The heat pumps are set to 69° and the house is around 70°. I also run two infrared space heaters, one 1500w in my basement office, and another 1500w in my basement movie room. Prior to this I was filling my oil tank once every 3 weeks at about $700 a pop, plus electricity. I will need to fill my oil tank once year now.
I’m sharing this because if you are using heat pumps and your heating bill is skyrocketing, check out the heat pump rate. A definite caveat is that my summer bill is about the same. However this has saved me roughly $1,500 over the year, maybe more. Also, the bill is wayyyyy more consistent.
