PREPARING FOR HIGHER WINTER GAS PRICES

WHY HAS THE COST OF GAS INCREASED?

Natural gas prices change due to the fluctuation of the market. This stems from the supply and demand issues within the industry and U.S. exports that have grown faster than expected. As a result, natural gas prices are between 70 and 90% higher than 2021.

Whether you use natural gas to heat your home or simply for a few appliances around the house, there are many ways to conserve and save on your utility bill. Below are a few simple steps to help.

        SEAL IT UP. Check for leaks around windows, doors, and other openings to the outside.Seal the leaks to keep in the warmth.

       CONTROL THE TEMP. Use programmable thermostats to help conserve energy.

               REGULARLY CHECK AND/OR REPLACE HVAC. filters every month. New filters usually only cost a few dollars. Dirty filters cost more to use, overwork the equipment, and result in lower indoor air quality.

                 INSULATE.Wrap water heaters with proper insulation and set the temperature to 120 F (or lower). Insulate your plumbing.

                ADJUST YOUR THERMOSTAT. Every degree above 68 on your thermostat can increase your bill by about 3%. So, if you crank it up to a toasty 78 degrees, you've already added 30% to your bill.

 Payment Options

 Check and cash payments can be made through the drive thru at our office. We encourage other options of payment, such as ACH, online (credit card), or using your bank's online bill pay service, as well as via mail, night drop and telephone (credit card).

To sign up for ACH, there is a form on the back of the bill or on our website www.graysonutilites.com. There is a fillable form on the website, that can be e-mailed to us or printed and dropped at the window or in the drop box. There is NO fee for ACH.

There is a link on our App to pay by credit card. This is also available on our website. There is a $1.50 convenience fee for all credit card payments up to $999.99.  Any credit card payments $1000.00 or over will need to be called in and there will be an increased fee according to amount of payment.  Most banks offer a bill pay service online.

If there are any questions feel free to call our office at 474-7569 option 3 for customer service.
