• Propane is used by millions of people in many different environments-homes, industry, farming and more.
• Propane gas is nontoxic, so it’s not harmful to soil and water.
• Propane is easy to transport and can be used in areas beyond the natural gas mains; because it is 270 times more compact as a liquid than as a gas, it is economical to store and transport as a liquid.
• Propane is an approved, alternative clean fuel listed in the 1990 Clean Air Act as well as the National Energy Policy Act of 1992.
• Propane equipment and appliances are manufactured to rigorous safety standards.
• More than 14 million families use propane to fuel their furnaces, water heaters, air conditioners, outdoor grills, fire places, dryers and range tops.
• Because propane is virtually odorless and colorless in its natural state, a commercial odorant is added so propane can be detected if it leaks from its container.
