Energy Saving Tips for Your Home

Propane Tanks contain clean burning fuel!  

Clean burning means efficiency and savings! 

Home Heating Tips:

• Your heating systems should be scheduled for regular maintenance. Contact the propane company that supplies your propane or a local furnace repair company.
• Using a propane tank which hold large volumes allow you to purchase propane at discount prices.
• To save money on heating cost change furnace filters regularly. 
• Use a good quality programmable thermostat.   There is no need for normal temperatures while you are away from home.
• Caulking and weather-stripping stop drafts and will save on your heating bill.

Water Heaters Considerations:

• Turning down your water heater thermostat.  130 degrees is adequate.
• Drain your water heater according to manufacturer's recommendations.
• Use flow-limiting shower heads. This alone will save significantly.
• Leaky faucets?  Repair them!  Up to 3,000 gallons of water a year can be lost from a single leak.

Home Appliances Ideas:

• Buy propane gas ranges with electronic ignition systems. 
• All burners should be burning with a clean blue flame like this picture. 
• Other types of flames that look differently indicate that maintenance or repairs are needed.
