Why Choose Propane?
Think of all the comforts your home buyers could benefit from using propane. Relaxing in front of a propane fireplace, enjoying a hot shower or putting on a favorite shirt fresh out of the dryer. You as the builder can give homeowners the best comfort, performance and loyalty using propane energy. Propane delivers the kind of smart, sustainable energy performance that today’s home building environment demands.
That’s where Florida Public Utilities propane comes in. Propane is available almost anywhere because it’s stored on your property and delivered by the trained professionals of Florida Public Utilities. Homes that use propane gas offer a number of advantages over all-electric homes.

Propane Saves Money
Propane appliances are extremely energy efficient. They can save homeowners hundreds, possibly even thousands, of dollars in annual energy costs. Propane itself is abundant, and competitively priced compared with electricity, heating oil or other fuels. In today’s world, everyone wants to cut energy costs. Propane will help your customers do just that.
Propane is Unbeatably Clean
Homeowners can lower their carbon footprint. This is because propane is a low-carbon alternative fuel that burns cleanly. It also produces fewer greenhouse gas emissions than most other energy sources.
