I have to pay about $50 USD per month just for the luxury of having heating in the northern US., even during the summer when I don’t need it. R The gas company can fucking blow me, I’m getting natural gas out of my house as quickly as I can afford it.

£100/year was the standing charge just to be connected to the gas network for me, had it removed as the heat pump was going in a few years ago.

Never having to worry about gas or carbon dioxide leaks is nice. Still got water leaks to worry about though, that caused some damage a while back. My standards are low enough that I would have fixed it with some duct tape and plywood but my partner doesn't consider that an acceptable level of workmanship. But at least we got a really nice shower out of it that the insurance company mostly paid for.
