I wish my power bill was this small. My tank are the least of my power issues when you consider there is 4 adults & a baby living in one house with 2 full kitchens, a heated indoor pool and my shop which run alot of 220v.

All though I am going all LED & dc pumps on the new build, most power consumption will be the chillers.

Ya but its pretty sad considering its a regular sized house in the city with just 2 people living in it.
