Propane Appliances – Is it time to Switch?

There are many propane appliances that can be utilized in your home. They are safe efficient ways to save on electricity, and some of the newer appliances that will run on propane may surprise you. In most cases, utilizing propane is less expensive than electricity or oil. The installation of propane appliances is generally less expensive initially as well as in the long run. Propane is also considered a “green fuel”, and is better for the environment that other fuel types.
