A resident of a single-story private house in Tashkent calculated his expenses for natural gas and electricity consumption during the cold weather in December.
As the cold weather set in, the electricity consumption in the private home remained almost unchanged, excluding the summer period when the limit is exceeded by 100 kWh or more due to the air conditioner. During the winter months, the established social consumption norm is exceeded by no more than 50-55 kWh. It is noted that as of the time of writing (December 21), 209 kWh had been consumed.
Meanwhile, if the natural gas consumption in the summer amounts to about 120-150 cubic meters, and sometimes even less than 100 cubic meters, not exceeding the established limit of 200 cubic meters, in winter the social norm of 500 cubic meters is typically reached by the 17th to 20th of the month, depending on the outdoor temperature. Thus, in November of this year, the social norm was exceeded by 347 cubic meters, and by December 17 of this year, the limit was exceeded by 56 cubic meters of natural gas. It is noted that there are often issues with the deduction of funds for natural gas, meaning that deductions do not occur on the same day and may sometimes take 4-5 days. This problem can lead to unexpected debts and, at the end of the month, affect the established limits for the following month. Therefore, if the funds are not deducted on the last day of the month, all unaccounted days will carry over to the next month and will consume the established limit for that month.
Earlier, we reported that a resident of Tashkent calculated how much electricity is consumed by a two-room apartment as the cold weather arrives.
