Well, Have you looked into your Power bills for last year. Mine ranged from a low of $62.00 to a high of $260.00! The energy was from 660 kwh to 2600 kwh. (kilowatt hours) which is what the power company reads from you meter each month. (if you are good with spreadsheets you may want to copy your history into one from the web for more accurate calculations later). You can get some more accurate daily readings for the coldest and hottest days that could be useful information when calculating the size of your system. If you haven't already gotten this information, go ahead and check your power bill or check online with your bill history. Duke-Energy has some very useful information online for looking at your energy usage. And any energy savings you can do by insulating and getting efficient lights and appliances can help reduce the size of the system you'll have to get. This is true especially with your a/c and heat sources. Get your numbers and we'll look at them together in tomorrow's post.
Have a good evening.
