Lower your gas bill
- Most home gas goes to heating. A lower thermostat setting in winter and sealing air leaks save the most.
- Ask your gas utility about a budget billing plan, which spreads the winter bills over the year, and about bill assistance. See help paying utility bills.

Gas bills have a fixed monthly charge. In summer, homes use little gas, so the fixed charge is spread over fewer Mcf and the average price per Mcf goes up, even though the bill is lower.
