If you include utilities within the rent, be certain to set your rent high enough for the worst case as they will keep the thermostat high, lights on, and, perhaps, even open a window from time to time because it has gotten too warm.We never rent with utilities included, but we have a option which gives the tenant the convenience of not having to put utilities in their name, but still holds them accountable for their usage.

In my situation, while gas for cooking was already separately metered, the pipes use for the radiant heat were shared, and you couldn't separate them with a second boiler.I put a locked cover over the thermostat that was set for 71 degrees.
