Advantages of Using Propane Appliances
Adding propane service to your home opens a world of possibilities.
As you travel around Cumberland County and throughout Central or Southeastern Pennsylvania, you are likely to see quite a few homes with propane tanks. Propane is an almost entirely American-produced energy source that can fulfill a range of vital household functions.
And propane appliances are some of the most efficient and high-performance options on the market. In this article, we’ll discuss why Koppy’s Propane customers love using propane appliances and equipment.
Propane Heating Systems
Propane can generate a lot of heat energy — nearly 91,500 Btu per gallon, in fact. Just one gallon of propane generates the same amount of heat energy as 88 cubic feet of natural gas or 27 kilowatt-hours of electricity.
Propane heating systems put this heating capacity to good use with impressive fuel efficiencies. Propane boilers and furnaces have AFUE ratings as high as 98.5%. Even on the coldest winter nights, a propane furnace ensures reliable performance, consistently delivering warm air at 120 degrees.
Need more localized heat for a single room or a detached space? Propane space heaters and garage heaters can do the trick effectively and safely.
Traditional and Tankless Water Heaters
If you want reliable showers and taps that heat up quickly, then propane is the answer.
A properly-sized propane water heater delivers hot water up to twice as fast as a comparable electric unit. For even greater efficiency, propane tankless water heaters provide virtually endless hot water while reducing energy costs by up to 34% compared to traditional storage-tank products.
Propane Ranges and Dryers
Propane ranges deliver unmatched precision for cooking. They heat up and cool down quickly, giving you greater control over cooking temperatures while making your kitchen safer. Whether you’re simmering sauces or searing steaks, propane stoves make it easier to achieve perfect results.
Switching to a propane dryer can transform your laundry routine. These dryers operate 25% faster than electric models, helping you tackle laundry day in less time. Plus, they reduce wrinkles in your clothes, saving you the hassle of extra ironing and giving you more time for what matters most.
Propane Hearth and Stove Products
Don’t let the fireplace in your home collect dust from a lack of use. With a propane-powered fireplace insert, gas log or standalone stove, you can enjoy a warming, attractive blaze with minimum effort and maximum safety. All you need to do is push a button to turn the flames on and off. There’s no need to worry about loose embers and burning logs escaping the hearth.
Plus, propane fires emit virtually no particulate matter, a known carcinogen and a significant hazard with wood fires.
