Columbia Gas of Virginia is improving the way you are billed. We will be converting to Dekatherm billing effective with bills mailed after February 1, 2016. â¢ Columbia Gas is aligning the way it bills customers for natural gas with the heating value of the product (i.e., the energy), and to match the way natural gas is bought and sold in the wholesale market place. â¢ This is only a billing conversion process, not a rate increase. Customers were previously billed based on the volume of gas consumed per month, or thousand cubic feet (Mcf), and will now be billed based on the energy consumed per month, or Dekatherms (DTH). â¢ The volume of gas is measured in Mcf (thousand cubic feet), while the heating or energy value of gas is measured in Dekatherms (DTH).
