   Well, at the time I did look into it.   
      
   You can discontinue gas service and I think it will cost you $60 to end   
   and then re-start the service.   
      
   So if you're not going to be using gas for at least 4 months, then you   
   will be further ahead to do this and save $21 a month.   
      
   I thought that this year would have been perfect - given the warm (even   
   hot) march weather we had here in SW-Ontario.  But in April it got cold   
   enough to need the furnace - that was a bummer.
