Well break down the benefits of propane and help you decide if its right for you.

• No other fuel source heats your home and powers your high-performance appliances better than propane. Propane fuel uses less energy than heating oil and electric appliances, which reduces energy costs. Plus, a propane-fueled furnace lasts about 5 to 10 years longer than an electric heat pump.
• We all want to reduce our carbon footprint, and propane helps us do that. It is a low-carbon alternative fuel made right here in the U.S. It produces less greenhouse gas emissions than most energy sources and has been approved under the Clean Air Act of 1990 and the National Energy Policy Act of 1992. 
• Propane safety is our top priority. With strict regulations developed by the National Fire Protection Association, propane fuel is one of the safest fuel alternatives available. Its nontoxic and nonpoisonous, which means it wont contaminate groundwater or soil.
• Storm coming? Relax. With propane, you never have to worry about fueling your homes most important systems, even when the electrical grid is down. With propane, it just works.
