Metered Propane
Your propane bill consists of these charges:
Customer Charge – A
fixed monthly amount to cover the cost of your service, meter
and billing. This charge is applied regardless of the quantity
of propane
Municipal Tax (%)
- Tax levied by City/County on energy billed. Tax is remitted
to the City/County.
Sales Tax – (All
Commercial customers) – (%) – Tax levied by the State of
Florida on energy & some services billed. Tax is remitted to
the State of Florida.
Late Fee - $5.00
or 1.5%; whichever is greater.
Reading your bill, like reading your meter, can help you
budget your energy use. Your FPU account is a charge
account-you use the energy you need each month, and we read
your meter at the end of your billing period and bill you for
the amount you have used.
Your propane bill is calculated in therms during each monthly
billing cycle. A therm is the basic unit of measurement
for the amount of propane you use. The amount of therms you use
is then multiplied by FPU's BTU factor. The BTU (British
Thermal Unit) factor describes the actual heat value of the
gas FPU supplies. As your meter is read from month to month,
the difference in these readings accounts for your consumption
and you are billed accordingly.
Due to weekends, holidays or the length of the month, the
total days between each meter reading may vary. So it's possible
for your monthly usage to increase or decrease from the previous
billing period even though your average daily use remains the
same.
