I have a thousand gallon propane tank in the back yard I use to fuel the furnace in the pole barn. When my parents built the house in 1956 propane and fuel oil were the two choices, no natural gas line.
When the local utility put in natural gas in the 80's Mom got tapped in and converted the furnace in the house (hot water boiler) and got a gas stove --Pop would not put in a gas stove due propane being denser than air -- had investigated a few explosions due to propane or butane pooling in a basement. I don't keep the tank full, usually only use a couple hundred gallons a year. Still have a propane wall furnace in the room Mom and Pop converted from a big porch, but I've not used it in years. I have it there if the power goes out for an extended period, it will probably keep the pipes from freezing. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
