How to Upgrade Your Home with Propane

5 Creative Ways to Live Better With Propane

propane Jacksonville, ALPropane is an ecofriendly and efficient choice for a wide variety of every-day appliances that use hot water or heat, including washers and dryers, dishwashers, and space heaters. But it’s also great for fueling appliances that can make your home a little more fun, inside and out: Think cozy fireplaces, outdoor lighting, patio heaters, pool and spa heaters, outdoor grills and more. Here are just a few of the ways propane can add value—and comfort—to your home.

1. Indoor Fireplaces

A propane fireplace brings all the ambiance and warmth of a wood-burning fireplace to any room, without the mess, smoke, and ash. And unlike a traditional fireplace, you can install a propane-fueled fireplace just about anywhere: living room, dining room, bedroom, even the kitchen. Imagine the luxe, spa-like glamour of a fireplace in your master bath!

2. Outdoor Living

Adding safe and efficient propane patio heaters can let you enjoy your outdoor spaces earlier in the spring and later into the autumn. Fire pits and fire bowls are an attractive focal point and gathering space for entertaining friends and family. And propane-fueled pool and spa heaters will warm up the water much faster than an electric heater, and maintain the temperature better once the water is warm. As a result, propane pool heaters help you keep heating costs under control, while letting you enjoy your pool or spa more. And with propane mosquito and bug zappers, you can enjoy your outdoor spaces even more.

3. Gourmet Cooking

There’s a reason professional chefs prefer to cook with gas. Nothing provides the precise temperature control that you get with a gas range. An electric burner just doesn’t respond as quickly, taking more time to reduce or increase the heat. A propane range means you can heat up your soup quickly without it boiling over, and you can keep a delicate sauce at a subtle simmer without scorching.

4. Grilling

If you have a propane range in your kitchen, you already know that nothing beats the precision and control you get cooking with gas. And it delivers the same precise temperature control on the patio. A propane grill makes outdoor cooking as easy as turning on your kitchen cooktop: Flip a switch, turn a knob and set your heat level. There’s less waiting time, too, because a propane grill is hot and ready to go in about 10 minutes. Compare that to 30 minutes or more to get charcoal hot.

5. Generators

When storms knock out power, a propane-fueled backup generator will keep your lights on, your refrigerator running and everything else powered up until the utility companies can make repairs. What’s more, a whole house generator can really boost your home’s value and even get you a lower rate on your homeowner’s insurance.

The Bottom Line

Why miss out on all the benefits this versatile fuel can deliver. From practical appliances to make your day-to-day easier, to easy upgrades to make your home feel more welcoming, propane packs power. Reliable, on-time propane delivery from the team at Superior Gas makes it even easier to enjoy.
