The next time you see water boiling on the stove, you know exactly what Propane is doing inside your tank. Water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Propane boils at 44 degrees below zero to create Propane vapor. Propane is stored as a liquid and then used as a vapor in your appliances. A gallon of liquid Propane creates 270 gallons of Propane vapor. As the Propane vapor is used from your tank, Propane liquid boils to replace it. This winter, when it is -10 degrees below zero, look at your Propane tank and remember that the temperature is still boiling hot to propane! |
| Why
do Propane gas prices fluctuate? -top |
In a free market economy many supply factors affect the pricing of all goods, including Propane. Propane comes from crude oil and natural gas. It's wholesale pricing usually tracks the cost of crude oil. When the OPEC Nations cuts production in an effort to increase prices, the price of Propane also begins to rise. Weather also has a large impact on energy prices. Colder than normal temperature will mean greater demand and prices for all heating fuels will rise as production companies work to meet that demand. There
are several factors that will influence Propane prices According to recent US Department of Energy statistics, Propane is HALF the price of electricity per BTU. Propane gas is safe, clean-burning and is still your best value! |
