The Natural Gas Advantage
If you’re currently dependent on fuel oil or propane, making the switch to natural gas is not only cost effective, but the smart choice.
The Safest Choice
Natural Gas is lighter than air, meaning small leaks dissipate quicker than similar volume propane leaks.
Being a gas, rather than a fluid, also means natural gas won’t cause messy spills or possible ground contamination.
Constant Supply
Natural gas is always there. No waiting for a delivery, or worrying about running out in bad weather.
This also means no huge bills at delivery, easier budgeting and aggregate billing options that spread payments over the whole year.
Lower Costs
No matter if it’s for home, industrial or agricultural use, natural gas is the lowest cost option.
