: Check to see if the boiler is shutting off for at least 10 minutes of an hour during the cold weather. A boiler that runs all the time could make the bills that high. A modern house of 1400 sq ft would have a fuel bill of $1000 a year. You are showing that your house is uninsulated and very large.
As far as how often it cycles, I can not remember but it seems like it was for about 15-20 minutes out of an hour. poor insulation, it's an old brick and plaster victorian. I think we used something like 3,250 ccf of NG over the last 12 months.
