Clean, k Non-Toxic Fuel: A LOOK AT THE ADVANTAGES OF PROPANE PROPANE QUICK FACTS Propane is: Used by A non-toxic fuel that is an approved alternative according to the 1990 Clean Air Act more than 12.6 million U.S households for heating and other purposes Produced domestically. Over 95% of the propane used in the U.S. is: A clean, versatile energy source MADE IN NORTH AMERICA Frequently used for • Heating buildings, water, pools, and spas • Cooking • Fueling fireplaces, outdoor grills, and power generators THE BENEFITS OF PROPANE Home Heating with Propane Provides the benefits of gas heat without having to be located near a gas pipeline Propane furnaces: Older oil burning units may only be 55-65% EFFICIENT Generate hotter air than electric furnaces Are cleaner and more efficient than oil furnaces New propane technology makes furnaces 90% EFFICIENT Can last for up to 20 YEARS Can fit in small spaces That's about 10 YEARS LONGER than comparable electric units Propane furnaces emit 37% FEWER greenhouse gases than oil furnaces Need less maintenance than oil units POOL HEATING WITH PROPANE Maintains heat better in cooler weather °F °F PROPANE HEATERS: Heaters can give off up to Warm pools faster than electric heaters 400,000 BTUS PER 1 L HOUR Other pumps lose efficiency once the air temperature goes below Are initially a more economical investment than electric or gas heaters 50 °F PROPANE GRILLS: About 60% of people who grill use propane gas grills Propane releases less carbon monoxide and soot CO2 OR Be sure to always use your propane grill outside in a well-ventilated area Grills can run on their own separate tank or on your home's main tank PROPANE FIREPLACES: Can be installed anywhere without worrying about a natural gas line being nearby This flexibility lets you put a propane fireplace in almost any room in the house!
