Family_CampingCamping season has begun!  There’s nothing better than roasting a marshmallow on an open fire, while enjoying the stunning scenery throughout Ontario’s abundance of campsites.

Camping in an RV or motorhome can create a comfortable experience for you and your family, and using propane as a fuel for cooking, hot water, and even refrigeration, can make your camping experience more enjoyable.

Whether your planning to camp in a national park or private campground, propane offers many advantages that will improve your camping experience.

Versatility 

Propane uses goes far beyond fueling your barbecue and heating your home.  Propane is so versatile that it can be used in your home, at your commercial site, on your farm or even in your backyard.    

Propane is one of the most versatile fuels, with an abundant supply throughout North America.  It is an ideal choice for RVs and campers.  Beyond cooking, propane can heat your RV throughout the chilly evenings in early and late summer, refrigerate your food and provide hot water.

Portability

RV_Propane_StorageOne of the major advantages of propane is its portability. Propane is 270 times more compact as a liquid than a gas, making it easy to store and transport as a liquid. The ability to store propane as a liquid also makes it more economical to transport, which also reduces the environmental impact caused by transportation. 

In an RV where you’re already limited by space, propane cylinders can be easily stored and hidden away from view. 

Environmental Impact 

If you’re heading up north to enjoy the beauty of cottage country and the surrounding forests, environmental impact may be top of mind. With climate change becoming an increasingly important issue, it’s more vital than ever before to reduce your carbon footprint to protect the environment.

Propane is a clean burning, non-toxic, lead-free fuel that isn’t harmful to soil or water, and does not endanger the environment.  It is not a greenhouse gas when released, and is removed from the atmosphere faster than it takes for it to have an impact on the climate.  Propane has extremely low-levels of sulphur – a contributor to acid rain - and since it is a clean-burning fuel, it emits virtually no soot and low carbon monoxide, hydrogen and oxides of nitrogen, basic precursors of ground-level ozone. 

Cost-Effectiveness 

Propane has higher efficiency levels than most energy sources, including electricity.  In addition, propane is one of the most cost-effective energy sources on the market. Propane will help you save energy by reducing your consumption, while also increasing your cost savings.
