Utility and common charges

I am considering to move to HK. Beside the rental costs I am interested to learn about utility and common charges (electricity, water, gas etc.) for 4 person household
Thank you for any advise

Electricity: varies by season - aircon is the biggest part. Anything from $150/month in a smaller place in Winter up to $2000+/month for a bigger place in summer.
Gas: $50-200/month depending on how much cooking you do with it.
Water: some tiny amount like HK$1-200 per year.
