Finding ways to stay warm throughout the winter without making excess expenditures can be fairly difficult, especially if you’re still using oil-fired furnaces to heat your home. Many new
Energy Efficiency:
Oil furnaces are some of the most common heating appliances in North America, which explains widespread frustration over high heating costs. On average, oil furnaces produce heat at about 60% efficiency, meaning that for every dollar you spend on heating oil, you’ll only get about 60 cents worth of heat. Propane gas furnaces, on the other hand, are much more efficient, with ratings typically at 90% or above. That’s a difference of at least 50%!
Affordability:
In addition to saving money through everyday operation with a propane furnace, homeowners will also find that propane furnaces make home heating more affordable in other ways. Many insurance companies place strict rules on how old oil tanks and furnaces must be in order to be covered. This means that you may have to replace your oil furnace equipment before it shows signs of wear and tear. Oil leaks are also very difficult to clean up, and can cost thousands of dollars. Propane heating equipment is much more affordable, and has no long-term effects on the environment during a spill.
Environmental Impact:
Finally, propane is much better for the environment. It is totally clean-burning and produces far fewer emissions than oil. Do your part to protect Ontario’s environment by switching to a propane furnace today.
