heating bill

Winter utility statement

A heating bill is the periodic charge for fuel or energy used to heat a building—typically natural gas, oil, or electricity.

The term appears most often in discussions of household expenses and seasonal costs: Our heating bill doubles in winter.

Heating bills spike during cold months and figure prominently in debates about energy efficiency and assistance programs for low-income households.
