Propane benefits

Propane benefits

  • Safe

    Propane has a built-in feature. In the unlikely event of a leak, it's easy to detect it as the gas smells like rotten eggs. This is because a safety odorant called ethyl mercaptan is added to propane.

    Additionally, propane turns into a vapour that does not harm the soil, air or aquifers. It dissipates quickly into the atmosphere and only requires a small amount of air movement to disperse.*

  • Cost-effective

    Propane is an exceptionally cost-effective fuel option due to its highly efficient performance and lower insurance bills due to no risk of contamination.*

  • Environmentally friendly

    Propane is one of the cleanest and most versatile energy sources. Recognized for its low environmental impact by the Alternative Fuels Act, propane’s greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) are significantly lower than most fuels.*

    •A propane furnace averages 38% less greenhouse gas emissions than fuel oil furnaces.

    •A propane water heater averages 52% less greenhouse gas emissions than electric water heaters.

  • Versatile

    In addition to keeping your home warm and cozy during the winter, you can also use propane all year long for cooking (gas stoves and BBQs), powering your appliances (fridges and freezers, washing machines and dryers), heating your water and much more.

  • Reliable

    In addition to operating the largest refinery in Canada, we have a vast distribution network throughout Atlantic Canada.
