Benefits of Using Propane

There are many reasons our customers choose propane as their energy source:

Environmentally Friendly- propane gas easily meets the clean air energy standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency. It is also nontoxic and insoluble in water. Because it is released as a gas, it doesn’t spill, pool, or leave a residue.

Versatile – propane and can be used for a wide range of residential applications: central heating, cooking, drying clothes, water heating, pool and spa heating. Propane fireplaces and hearth products often offer great space heat solutions and are among the most popular appliances sold today.

Reliable – Almost 90 percent of all propane is produced right here in the United States. Eastern maintains a reserve of over 2 million gallons alone for its’ customers. Remember, with some propane equipment, even when the power is out many propane-fueled homes are nice and warm.

Efficient – Propane offers you a very attractive combination: it costs less and works harder. Propane appliances have a shorter energy savings payback period and burn hotter and more evenly than many other fuels.
