Converting a home to propane is a straightforward, easy process that will leave you with lower energy bills and a cleaner environment. The average conversion takes 2 days and you could have a new system installed in as little as two weeks.

Switching from heating oil to propane means upgrading to a propane-based Hybrid System. These systems consist of a heat pump that is primarily fueled by propane and has a fossil fuel backup.

    Why Switch to Propane?

    There are many reasons why switching to a propane system is a good investment:

    Better Efficiency

    New propane appliances are typically 97% efficient - compared to the usual 56% efficiency of 20 year old heating oil appliances.

    Better for Your Wallet

    With a hybrid system, you'll enjoy increased efficiency and less volatile pricing - which means smaller, more consistent energy bills.

    Better Maintenance

    Propane systems are less expensive and cleaner to maintain.

    Better Versatility

    Heat your home, cook your food, dry your clothes, heat your water, light your fireplace, and have back-up power too!

    Better Resale

    When it comes time to move, propane-powered homes often have a higher resale value.

    Better for the Environment

    Reduce your average carbon emissions output by 2.5 tons - annually.

    Better for America

    95% of propane used in America is produced in America - help reduce dependence on foreign oil.

    What else can I use propane for?

    Propane is a very versatile fuel. You can use it in many other areas of your home that can help you save money and the environment. You can use propane for:

    Home heating

    Cooking

    One of our favorite ways to use propane (other than with a hybrid or propane heating system) is with a propane-fueled tankless water heater. By using propane with a tankless water heater, you can reduce your overall household energy bills by up to 40% and can reduce water heating costs by 40%-60%.
