Residential Propane

while being hidden out of sight. And because propane is nontoxic and insoluble in water, it will not contaminate soil or water if accidentally released.

Home Heating. When compared with other heating sources across the majority of U.S. climate zones, propane shines! Homeowners living in the Northeast who upgrade from a standard-efficiency residential propane furnace to a high efficiency unit (95 AFUE or higher) can expect a one-year payback on their investment. The switch also benefits the environment, reducing a home’s annual CO2 emissions by up to 3.8 metric tons. 

Propane furnaces offer best-in-class efficiency. They have ratings from 90 to 98 percent, and will provide comfortable, even, and consistent heat during even the coldest weather. Propane-powered boilers offer efficiency, space savings, and the versatility to provide space heating, water heating, and even snow melt. Even in the coldest, outdoor climates where a dual-fuel hybrid system is used, propane improves the efficiency and comfort of air- or ground-source heat pump systems and further protects homeowners from rising utility costs.

Space Heating. Propane zone heaters are ductless and can be used in homes, garages and outbuildings, and they come freestanding or wall-mounted. You can fit these units with thermostats and blowers, providing reliable spot heat even during electrical outages.

Water Heating. Propane tankless water heaters have long been a model of efficiency. They have an hourly hot water delivery rate nearly triple that of tank-style electric water heaters. Plus tankless water heaters have an overall life expectancy 50 percent longer than tank-style units. Just as important, using a propane tankless water heater in place of an electric storage water heater can avert up to 3,400 pounds of carbon emissions per year. That’s roughly the same amount of CO2 a mid-size car emits in an 11-week period. For a resident of the Northeast U.S., an investment in a propane tankless water heater will pay for itself in about five years. Even better, propane tankless units deliver nearly three times as much hot water per hour as conventional electric tank water heaters.

When it’s time to replace your aging water heater, upgrade to the performance and savings of propane. A propane tankless water heater will deliver endless hot water, and save on energy, too. With a high-efficiency propane storage tank water heater, you can save up to 16 percent in annual energy costs compared with electric models.

Cooking If you aren’t already cooking with gas, you’ll love cooking with propane! You’ll quickly see more precise temperature control and heat delivery than with electricity. Plus there are a wide range of residential propane ovens, stoves and cooktops available today that can integrate well into your existing kitchen…some with energy-saving features that can reduce gas consumption by up to 50%!

It’s time to get rid of that old oven and stove, and start cooking like the pros. 96% of professional chefs prefer cooking with gas. Once you upgrade to a propane cooktop or oven, you’ll understand why. Instant heat, more precise temperature control, and greater efficiency are all reasons upgrade to propane kitchen appliances.

Pools & Spas. Propane is an excellent choice to help you enjoy a warm pool and spa experience, regardless of the weather. Propane pool heaters can reduce energy bills, since they warm pools faster than electric units while maintaining heat better in cold conditions. In return, this saves you money.

Combat the elements and maximize your outdoor fun with propane pool and spa heaters. With a much higher efficiency than electric systems, propane heaters heat your pool or spa and maintain your desired temperature better. They also operate cleanly and take up little space, despite their powerful capabilities. It’s time to shake the shivers and enjoy your hard-earned backyard year-round.

Clothes Drying. Propane clothes dryers offer homeowners an efficient, convenient, and quick laundry solution. Compared with electric dryers, a propane clothes dryer will dry clothes faster and more efficiently. Propane dryers also offer the latest innovations such as steam cycles to de-wrinkle and freshen garments, drum lights to better see into the unit, and LCD control screens for ease of use. With propane, “laundry day” goes by a lot faster.

Propane clothes dryers produce hot air with more moisture than electric heaters, which can help relax wrinkles in the clothes. Propane clothes dryers also feature moisture sensors, pilotless ignition, and timed drying cycles to ensure that the unit operates efficiently and safely. The moisture sensors prevent over-drying of the clothes. Thereby, saving additional energy and keeping the cycle time to a minimum.
