The Benefits of Propane Powered Appliances in Your Home

Are you thinking about replacing the old stove in your kitchen, or maybe getting a new hot water heater? Well then, it’s time to consider modern propane powered appliances! Compared to their electricity powered counterparts, propane powered appliances are a more efficient, more reliable, and more environmentally-friendly option.
 
Efficiency:
When it comes to powering appliances, propane is 87% efficient. Compare that to the efficiency of electricity at only 32% efficient, and it’s easy to see how how big of a difference there really is. Nearly two thirds of the energy used by power plants to generate and transmit electricity is wasted, making a direct propane fuel source a much more efficient option. Higher efficiency means less fuel cost for you and more money in your pocket!
 
Reliability:
When the power goes out in your home, all of your electricity powered appliances go out with it, but with propane powered appliances, there’s no need to worry about losing power. Your propane powered appliances will always work when you need them to, regardless of if you have power in your home or not. Gain greater peace of mind knowing propane appliances won’t let you down during power outages.
 
Environmental Friendliness:
On top of being more efficient and more reliable, propane is also one of the cleanest carbon-based fuel sources available. While electricity is primarily generated from coal which can be harmful to the environment, propane is nontoxic and doesn’t pose any threats to soil or water. This means that by switching to gasoline powered appliances, not only will you be saving money, but you will be saving the environment also.
