heating costs
Winter utility bills
Heating costs are the expenses incurred to warm a building—typically a home or workplace.
The term usually refers to fuel bills (natural gas, oil, electricity, propane) but may include maintenance of heating systems.
Our heating costs doubled after the old furnace broke down.
Insulation helps reduce heating costs.
