68ish all the time.$266 is a lot what temps are you at ?
ideally every house in this climate zone should have 2x6 construction and insulation plus exterior insulation. Sure the upfront cost would be higher but how long does a house last? The energy savings from doing double or triple code for insulation will pay for itself easily in the long run.
I’d love to do exterior insulation whenever we do siding on the house and then I will consider getting a Geo thermal heat pump. That would be the hot setup for new construction that I was planning on living in for 20 years. The bill to HVAC the house would be nearly nothing
Geothermal is too expensive and complicated IMO. The cost to drill a well field is insane.
Your money would be better spent on insulation and air sealing, running a couple mini split heat pumps and an ERV, get rid of any combustion appliances in the house in favor of electric powered.
I just worry about not producing enough heat with standard heat pumps. And I’ve been seeing a new type of Geo that uses shallower wells and a smaller grid that a company in New England is installing. It also cuts the cost of install in halfGeothermal is too expensive and complicated IMO. The cost to drill a well field is insane.

The tech is getting better and can handle pretty cold temps. Mitsubishi hyper heat line has 100% capacity down to 23*, 76% capacity down to -13*I just worry about not producing enough heat with standard heat pumps.

$140K isn’t much is you have a couple million dollar home. Hell if you do high end Wolfe/Viking/Sub Zero appliances that will add up very quickly.Gunna ask our CEO what his bill was like at the hockey game tonight. However I am not sure he will know nor would it ever matter.
His home is 8,000 square feet approx I think, and this is the same person that just spent 140k updating his kitchen and living room. (Just those 2 rooms only)
Fuuuuuuuu
i love those high end appliances. with my old man being an appliance guy, thats how i got my $4000 dacor dual fuel range for $50 and fixed the control board with a $5 relay. lol.$140K isn’t much is you have a couple million dollar home.

It’s all relative.
i should do attic insulation for sure. as well as floor insulation in the part of my house that is above the vented crawl space. that tile gets cold AF.My place had crappy insulation when it was new. If I were planning on staying here long-term I'd like to rip out all the drywall and put in new insulation, and also redo the attic.
But I don't plan on being here any longer than I have to, so there won't be any ROI. Just gonna leave it for the next person to deal with.
2-4 units is pretty common in Texas. We have 1 large unit for the main floor, midsize unit for the second floor, and 1 smaller unit for the master bed/bath.3 ac units? God damn.

What do you have for heat? Heat pumps? Gas furnaces?January: $401 for electricity/$122 for gas. The first month we were here in Texas our electric bill was $796 during the hottest month (august). 3 ac units, pool, Tesla, 3800sq/ft
