These terms explain how to use the calculators and what the estimates do and do not mean.
Last updated: May 26, 2026
Estimates only
Utility Bill Tools provides estimates and educational explanations. The calculators are not a substitute for your official utility bill, professional advice, or local utility rate schedules.
You are responsible for checking the estimate against your official bill, utility tariff, supplier agreement, and local rules before making financial, repair, or purchasing decisions.
No guarantee of savings
Savings suggestions are general. Actual savings depend on your home, utility rates, appliance efficiency, climate, habits, taxes, and billing rules.
No professional advice
Content on this site is for general education. It is not legal, financial, electrical, plumbing, tax, safety, or utility account advice. Contact the appropriate utility, regulator, or licensed professional for situation-specific decisions.
Third-party services
The site may include links to third-party websites, advertisers, affiliate programs, analytics providers, or product pages. We are not responsible for third-party policies, pricing, or products.
Acceptable use
Do not misuse the site, attempt to disrupt the service, scrape it in a way that harms availability, or submit sensitive information that the calculators do not request.
Advertising and affiliate links
The site may display advertisements and may include affiliate links. These links do not change the calculator formulas, and product checks are optional.
