Budget Propane Ontario's Wintertime Tips for Propane Use

Written by James Callow | Sun, Dec 01, 2013 @ 04:14 PM
Using propane to heat, grill, and fuel is both an energy- and cost-efficient choice. The chill of the winter months will likely require you to use more propane than you would at other times of the year. Here are some tips from Budget Propane Ontario for keeping your propane bill low and getting the most out of your tank through the winter.
 
Insulate Your Home: Heat escaping from cracks and crevices in your home’s infrastructure can cost you money. The less secure your thermal envelope is, the quicker your propane supply will run out. Inspect the doors and windows to make sure that heat is not escaping and cold air is not entering your home or office. Hire an insulation inspector if you are not comfortable identifying leaks on your own.
 
Keep Your Tank Full: Winter storms and other adverse seasonal conditions can make accessing your tank difficult. Keep your tank full on a more consistent basis in the winter months so that you don’t risk being without fuel in the event of an emergency. Consider adding remote tank monitoring to your propane service as a means of keeping your tank full without worry.
