Spring has come to an end and summer is officially here in Ontario, Canada. It’s a time of joy for many Canadians, but many will be thinking about how to cut down on those expensive energy bills that creep up in the summer months.

With the air conditioning cranked on most days and children staying at home and playing on their electronic devices all day, those monthly energy bills are bound to rise. However, with a few simple steps, you can bring those costs down.

In this blog, Budget Propane Ontario, lists six simple tips that will help you save money on those expensive energy bills this summer:

With energy bills rising across Ontario homeowners are looking for new ways to save on their monthly expenditure and keep an extra bit of cash for themselves - making the switch to propane can make that happen.

By making a simple switch to propane, your household will find that it can save money, become more environmentally friendly and become safer. With propane becoming more popular among restaurant owners, perhaps it’s time your household makes the switch too. 

Looking for a clean, environmentally beneficial fuel for your home or business? Propane is a safe, non-toxic, clean-burning fuel that is a great source of energy.  Choosing to use propane can help you reduce your heating and hot water bills since propane water heaters can be twice as efficient as electric models.

Propane has a low carbon content, producing minimal emissions, and is therefore safer for the environment than other fuels. Air pollutants are one of the most serious environmental problems in the world, and choosing a fuel option that helps to reduce air pollutants will reduce the negative effects on the quality of ecosystems worldwide.

Just last month, we introduced our smart Propane Tank Monitoring Systems that help homeowners automate their propane delivery by offering real-time propane tank levels.

This system not only ensures you get the right amount of propane when you need it, it gives you peace-of-mind and can help increase the amount of money in your wallet, by optimizing your deliveries.

Now, we are happy to tell you about a new program being offered by the Green Ontario Fund that will help increase your cost savings further and add even more convenience to your home.
