Reasons to Switch to Propane this Fall
Fall is here. That means pumpkins, falling leaves, candy corn, and changing weather. Last winter was very bad, causing stress for homeowners and leaving customers without heat. Propane is a great fuel that is easy to get in our area and we recommend using it for heating.
With this and many other reasons, we think you’ll benefit from switching. These are four good reasons to convert right now.
It’s Economical & Efficient
All of your home’s electrical appliances can be powered by propane. Propane is cheap and runs your stove, bigger kitchen appliances, washer and dryer. Want to get cheaper? Power is twice as expensive as propane.
It’s Quickly Accessible
Fewer than 5 percent of all homes heat with gas. Why? Primarily made from natural materials like natural gas and oil, propane is easy to find, even when demand is high (mostly in the winter). The US makes about 90% of the gas it uses.
It’s Convenient and Durable
How about knowing that gas tanks are good for the environment and can be stored safely for up to 40 years? You can get propane brought to your door, have your tank filled, and fill up a storage tank to use in case of an emergency. Trustworthy, long-lasting, and useful. Actually, tanks don’t need much care.
It’s Safe
If we were to rate the safety of different fuels for heating homes, propane might be at the top of the list. Propane has a great track record for safety. The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) has very strict rules that have a lot to do with this.
There’s not much to worry about when it comes to propane safety as long as drivers, techs, and people who use propane follow the rules.
Keep Your Household Running
For cooking, water heating, and clothes drying, a household needs propane always available. Residents of these residences would have to carefully monitor their propane usage and supply without a regularly renewed supply.
The homeowner can hire a propane delivery business instead. According to each household’s usage and tank size, propane professionals determine the best refill plan to keep every appliance running. So homeowners may enjoy propane without worrying about running out.
Maintain A Large Propane Tank
Not all gas tanks can be moved safely when they are full. You may need to work with a gas delivery service if your home uses too much propane for two 100-pound tanks.
These companies can fill up gas tanks that are very big, even ones that can hold more than 1000 gallons. Because the tank is so big, you won’t have to worry about running out of gas for months at a time.
Propane Gas is Reliable
As a country resident, you may experience more and longer power outages compared to an urban resident. Outer power lines in rural areas are often vulnerable to bad weather and strong winds.
Since propane gas supply is available, you will never be without heat or light. While the power is out, you can always use your energy source because propane gas is stored in tanks on your land.
