The Sanyos seem to be using up 3,857 kWh per year.
At 16.61 cents per kWh, that's about $640.65 per year ($53.39 per month).

So, we are living in comfort for about $1.75 a day..

It seems this also includes heating our hotwater since August 2012..
(The A7 ASHP is not included in the June 5496 baseline calculation).
It's August 1, 2013 and I've just dumped out the TED data.
For the year, 4032 kWh burned. $685 year / $57 month / $1.88 per day, at 17 cents per kWh.

LOL! I just checked the price of diesel fuel (aka #2 fuel oil) and $685 will buy us about $171 gallons of heating oil!!
