    We got solar panels put in a few years ago, so we always have a positive (they owe us) bill. But prior to that we rarely went over $250. We have gas though, and in winter gas bills can be around $200-250 each I believe.

    Do you also have an electric hot water system? If so, that would add heaps to the bill as well.

    We recently converted from electric hot water to gas, since then our power bill is over $200 cheaper a quarter. We also don't have natural gas and use our split system year round, along with the wood fire.
