The Benefits of Residential Propane

Our customers are always amazed at the unrivaled advantages propane offers. As one of the leading propane suppliers in the state, we stand behind all of our products and services as they serve the needs of our residential customers in all the best ways. From the moment you install a new propane setup for your home, you will enjoy a host of benefits other forms of home fuel can’t match, including:

• Fuel Convenience: Propane tanks offer you real choice in the installation location. Propane can be safely set at home sites beyond the natural gas grid, giving you the perfect blend of customization, efficiency, and convenience.
• Capabilities: You may be familiar with propane heaters and grills. But propane has the advanced capabilities to power even the most high-performance systems and amenities found in American homes today. Propane also reduces energy costs and emissions simultaneously while increasing comfort levels compared to alternative fuels like electricity and oil.
• Eco-friendly Cleanliness: One of the best advantages of propane is its minimal effect on the environment. Propane is a clean, non-toxic, non-poisonous fuel that doesn’t contaminate groundwater or soil. It also burns more efficiently, so it does not leave behind any harmful residue.
• Improved Energy Efficiency: When it comes to energy efficiency, propane stands alone. It is proven to fuel homes better than other comparable sources and may even qualify you for credits and discounts through the state of Michigan.

Propane Vs. Other Forms of Fuel

Propane is a proven primary energy source homeowners can count on, even when the electrical grid is down. It offers a broad range of exceptional advantages over other forms of fuel and saves you more in the long run. Customers who opt for a propane installation from Hopkins Propane can achieve true peace of mind knowing they made the right fuel choice for their home. Let’s see how propane stacks up against other, popular forms of fuel:

• Propane vs. Oil Heat: While oil heat generally has a higher British Thermal Unit (BTU) rating than propane, propane is the modern fuel choice for savvy, cost-conscious homeowners. Propane has a lower cost per gallon than heating oil, is more efficient in terms of equipment operation, and produces almost no carbon dioxide when in use. Propane equipment also requires less maintenance, does not contaminate the ground if there is a leak or malfunction, and can be used to power a full range of high-efficiency appliances all from the same tank.
• Propane vs. Natural Gas: Propane has more than twice the energy of natural gas. Unlike propane, natural gas is more dangerous and deadly if there is a leak or explosion (as it is connected to gas lines), and natural gas installation is much more expensive. For natural gas, you may have to dig up your existing yard and property, convert all your appliances to natural gas, and hire contractors to help you with all the work.
• Propane vs. Electricity: Propane is a more cost-effective fuel when running appliances, especially high-voltage appliances, in your home. Electricity is also a secondary resource, meaning another system has to create it for use. Propane is a primary source, which means it can be used as-is. The bottom line is electricity is not as clean, efficient, or eco-friendly as propane. Historically, propane has provided better savings and efficiency on energy usage than electricity over time.
