Kilowatt usage
Can someone tell me what is the max possible kilowatt usage having 30 amp service? If i figured correctly, it is 86 kw/ day. That sounds like a lot to me.

That would be right, but to do that you would have to have heaters running 100% of the time at maximum.
Generally 30 amps is the maximum allowed, and your breaker will trip if you exceed this for very long.
But your loads, electric heaters, fridges, hot water tanks, A/C's do not generally run at full load for very long.
So, in a day, a full day and night, I bet few exceed 50Kwatts.
