A week or so after installing Sense, I began to study the trending for our Always On load. After reading that the “average” Sense user runs only 288 W always on, I seriously questioned the 1,550 W level I was seeing. My family and I enjoy a good life here in New England including several televisions, couple refrigerators, relatively large house…but 1,550 W all the time !?!? I figured something was wrong with the breaker panel installation, Sense unit calibration, app, malfunctioning appliance, etc. I took some time on a Saturday morning walking around the house unplugging and re-plugging power strips, cycling appliances, furnace, well pump, banks of lights, exercise equipment, audio equipment… Nothing. But finally, I looked outside and I knew I’d found it. I have three lengthy heat tapes for preventing ice-dams during the winter. And without Sense to highlight the energy load, I’d been leaving them on all winter to ensure the living room drywall damage we suffered a few years back didn’t happen again. Turns out those heat cables were totaling 1,075 W….24 hours a day….since…
