Service Call, Customer said their Electric Bill was super high, I wonder why.. #electrician

What happens here

Perform a thorough walkthrough of the house to identify major electricity consumers. In this case, the investigation revealed 20 baseboard heaters throughout the house and 13 basic thermostats. The absence of a central air conditioning system implies that these baseboard heaters are the primary heating source, which are known for high energy consumption. These devices, particularly when controlled by basic thermostats that lack smart features, can lead to significant and often unnecessary electricity usage.

Goal: Pinpoint the specific appliances or systems responsible for excessive energy consumption.

What they say

Hide

continuous amps which is a lot the panel was rated at 200 amps but that's still a lot of amps but we figured it out guys we saw the customer had 20 baseboard heaters in the house and 13 basic thermostats which was causing the spike in the electric bill there was no Central AC in the house which means the customer was donating money to the utility so to fix the problem we told the customer he needs to keep his heat down and now we need to change all 13 of his basic thermostats to Smart
