There are many benefits when using propane. Here are a few :
- Better Efficiency – Propane gas stoves and fireplaces heat more evenly and more efficiently than wood-burning ones. They can also heat a larger area, meaning less reliance on primary home heating systems and significant cost savings. Wood-burning fireplaces can lose up to 90 percent of their heat through the chimney. Fireplace heat also tends to fade just a few feet from the hearth.
- Cleaner Burning – A Colorado Clean Air Campaign study showed gas logs would burn 40 times longer than wood-burning fireplaces while producing less emissions. The difference is so significant that in some states the use of wood-burning fireplaces is prohibited on days when air quality is poor.
- Lower Cost – Propane gas fireplaces can produce twice as much heat as wood-burning ones at about a third of the cost. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that a gas fireplace costs 30 to 60 percent less per hour to operate than a wood-burning fireplace. Turning to a more efficient propane furnace, water heater, clothes dryer, range or other propane-powered appliances will save you money, help the environment, and keep you warm.
