Powering everything from furnaces and clothes dryers to lawnmowers and other commercial equipment, clean, green propane is:

• Efficient – Propane-powered appliances outperform most other appliances in terms of efficiency – especially their electricity-based equivalents.
• Safe – Propane handling is highly regulated and has a remarkable safety record, and propane appliances have built-in safeguards to keep everyone safe.
• Eco-friendly – Propane is a low-carbon alternative fuel that produces far fewer greenhouse gas emissions than most other energy sources.
• Powerful – Propane can easily power any home system – and can do it for less per Btu than just about any fuel around.
• Reliable – People all over the world use propane to heat their homes, power their cars and keep their lights on when the grid goes down.
• Made in the USA – Almost all the propane used domestically is produced in the USA or in neighboring Canada, reducing our dependence on foreign oil.
