All LPG prices (NSW) increased on the 1st of September as did electricity back in July and I dont doubt Natural gas did as well.
It is an obviously great time to shove up costs as people use more 'fuels' for heat because they have no alternatives available to compete with the costs.
There is a marginal increase in fuel useage in winter for cooking. I found on a standard 49kg LPG bottle, it would last about 5 months in winter but 7 months in summer.
When I had the small coal fired HWS working, in winter it took around 90 minutes from cold to heat the water so you couldnt put your hand in it but in summer it took only about 45 minutes.
Its the same as selling Umbrellas, not a lot of trade in a drought but when the rains fall ???
