How does Propane Heat Work? 

Propane is a type of gasoline that's normally stored as a liquid, but when released, is converted instantaneously into a gas. This makes propane a favorable energy source used for standard heating options that require maximum space coverage.

Advantages of Propane Heating 

Eco-Friendly 

Propane heating is good for the environment due to its reliance on clean carbon-based fuel which reduces green-house gas emissions. 

Cost Effective

As a more economically sound heating solution, propane-powered heaters reduce short and long-term energy expenses that wouldn’t otherwise be possible through electricity and traditional gasoline-powered heating systems. Propane heat is budget-friendly.

Safe 

Using propane heaters inside is incredibly safe and easy to manage. All of our top-rated portable propane heater products come with simple directions to follow for secure use. 

Propane vs Natural Gas

The biggest difference between propane heaters and natural gas heaters is that propane heaters are more energy efficient; propane gas produces a greater amount of energy than natural gas. Propane also burns hotter than natural gas. 

Propane Heaters vs Electric Heaters

The largest difference between propane heaters and electric heaters is that propane-generated heat is typically warmer than electric-generated heat. Additionally, an electric heater won’t work during power outages unless you have a source of backup power.
