FURNACES
Why Propane Offers Greater Heating Comfort.
Propane furnaces offer you warmer air than electric
heating systems. A gas furnace heats air to about 120°F and operates in
short intervals to minimize operating costs. An electric heat pump produces
heat below body temperature, so the air actually feels cool when placing
your hand in front of a vent.
People Warm Up to Propane Very Quickly.
- Heating a home with gas costs half as much on
average than heating with electricity (U.S. Department of Energy).
- Propane-fueled furnaces last 15-20 years — that’s
5-10 years longer than electric heat pumps, on average.
- Propane heating systems can be vented vertically or
horizontally, eliminating the need for chimneys.
- New propane gas furnaces are smaller than previous
models and provide greater placement flexibility.
- Propane can keep your home warm and comfortable
during electrical power outages.
