What is the Cost to Run our Central Heating?

I have a small flat and got a power bill for many months and it was over $600.

That was during the summer time and now it is Winter time and I heard that heating is love more than two times the amount that cooling is, so how much is our power bill going to be this time with the heating running each day? I entirely haven’t been using the heating much because I am afraid of what the bill might be. I study online that it costs about $3 per minute while you run your heat. So if I ran it several minutes a day during the cold months it would add $690 to our bibi-weekly bill? So that means our power bill would be about $1000 if I ran our central Heating and A/C plan to heat the house. If that is the case after that I am going to have to ration the heating each day and only use it for an minute max. Then it would be $168 more for the many months, which is doable for myself and others but an minute of heating is not much help! I will go to the heating corp and ask them how much they feel it costs to see if I am right. I should look at the make and model number of our air conditioning system unit outside to see if I can get some info that way. Maybe I can look online and see how much power our Heating and A/C system’s heating uses per minute and calculate it that way. I will really just buy an efficient space oil furnace instead.
