Are you remodeling your home and considering propane? Or maybe you're planning a new build rural home or cottage and need to decide on your source of energy? One thing is for sure, propane offers home owners a range of benefits and for every room in your house!

Let's start with propane for heating.  A propane furnace or boiler provides the ultimate home comfort. Both with heat air to a higher initial temperature which means you get to your desired thermostat setting faster, plus it's easier to maintain at that level. In addition, propane heating is incredibly efficient and clean!

Next let's think about hot water for your kitchen, laundry and bathroom. Installing a high efficiency propane water heater or a propane tankless water heater will provide all the hot water you need and lower your energy bills.  With a high-efficiency propane storage tank water heater, you can save up to 16 percent in annual energy costs compared with electric models.

With the pandemic, many property owners in central Ontario have not been able to visit their cottages very often during the season. If your property is periodically vacant, security is a top of mind issue. An unoccupied or vacant property faces an increased risk when it comes to potential damage such as water damage, heating/electrical system damage and vandalism.

One thing you can do is to make sure your propane supplier has your current phone number, mailing address and email, should they need to contact you about your tank or service. Also provide them with an emergency/ alternative contact in case you are out of reach.

Mechanical failure and power outages can cause heating systems to shut down, and if that happens during the winter it can cause a big problem. Cold weather can cause pipes to freeze and burst, and if no one is around to respond considerable damage can be done. So keep that in mind for this winter.
