Propane Gives You More Value for Your Energy Dollar

Propane is efficient — it costs less and works harder. On average, propane costs about half as much per Btu as electricity; it burns hotter and more evenly than many other fuels; and propane appliances have a shorter energy savings payback period — the time it takes for an appliance to pay for itself via energy savings.

With propane, you pay less for your energy and you save money each time you use it.
