If I'm not wrong, they'll be extending the gas piping to the stove area. And intall the gas heater as well. Will find out more this Sat when they come down to do the entire thing. Should be interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

janyen 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2007 Ya tell me about it.. Got one time our bill at the rented flat was $200+ ! Then the months after that keep giving estimate bills somemore.. But I don't think City Gas will be that bad right? Anybody who's used the heater and have average bills to share? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MaCe 3 Report post Posted April 12, 2007 since you guys already decided on pipe gas, there is already no turning back lor.pipe gas is definitely safer.their billing got problem, got a rich fren who went for 3.5 weeks vacation with whole family.nobody at home for 3.5 weeks, when they returned, gas bill is more than previous mth!now WHO the heck uses the gas?similiar thing happenned to neighbours, have yet to come across relative/friends who didnt kpkb on the gas billing. Best thing is - not just me, even my wife"'s relative/friends got problem with the gas billing, always overcharge.to rich pple, of cos $50-$100 means nothing. but to workingclass like me, every dollar counts.LP gas only $22 and I dont see it being less safe than pipe gas.
