John Norton, a landlord in Queens, is frustrated with his skyrocketing gas heating bills from Con Edison, prompting him to switch to a more costly heating oil. He criticizes New York's green mandates that have made natural gas more expensive and reveals Con Ed's recent proposal to increase gas bills by over 13%, potentially adding nearly $2,000 annually to consumer costs. Norton plans to install a $7,000 high-efficiency oil boiler, which he estimates will significantly lower his heating costs.
I can't afford the gas bills anymore - I'm tapped out.
That's ridiculous, ConEd is proposing to shock customers with double-digit increases next year.
My total gas bill for the building was $601.23, with $451.78 for gas delivery.
I'm buying a new $7,000 high-efficiency oil-hot-water boiler to save hundreds a month.
