NG here.......

$95/month
Posted By: Blackheart Re: Just got propane - 10/27/22
I haven't noticed. Our kitchen stove is all we use it for so it's an insignificant cost. Our winters supply of heating fuel cost us about a hundred bucks. That includes gas, bar oil and a new chain.
Posted By: DigitalDan Re: Just got propane - 10/27/22
We are ballpark $4/gallon here in the swamps.

Woof..... Geez. I'm so lucky - it costs me less tha $1K to heat this place for the entire year (about 2250 ft sq+).. 90% wood, 10% fuel oil..

I feel for everyone who has to pay these kinds of prices for fuel/LP etc., now... eek

Indoor heat is over rated. Just a notch below indoor plumbing IMHO.

You can install a less than 120 gallon tank adjacent to the home here. I think it has to be 10ft from any ignition source or intake for heater.

I just filled the 30 lb bottles for our 5th wheel last Sunday at $1/lb. If my math is correct, that should be $4.13/gal. I suppose buying in larger quantities as described above would result in lower prices...

I'm on city gas - summer is usually about 70 a month, winter it jumps to 110 or so. No special plan, just "whatever".

We burn wood pellets in 2 stoves. about 4 1/2 ton a year. I got last batch at 280/ton, they went up the next day to 310.
I got 5 ton at the house, so we should be good for the year.
I had pellets for over 20 years, and usually a ton is about the same as a gallon of gas. So gas at 1.80 a gallon, pellets would be about 180 a ton. Anyway it was always close. So pellets we kinda cheap this season.

I burn propane in my furnace. But I've cut a pretty good stack of firewood this year. The man who built this house was serious about insulation.

I got the firebox in my double sided fireplace hot a few nights ago and turned the furnace off after the house hit 66 degrees. With the fans blowing, the fireplace took it up to 72 degrees and held it there. It was actually warmer than I prefer,..so I let the fire burn down a couple of hours before going to bed.

It was still 70 degrees in the house when we went to bed.

Typically, we'll burn 1200 gallons of propane through a winter. I'm going to seriously work the firebox this year and see if I can get it down to 900 gallons, or so.

If push comes to shove regarding fuel prices, I'll bite the bullet and have a proper insert installed. But for now, this big, double sided fireplace urged on by a pair of Vortex fans will keep the house as warm as I want it as long as I pump enough wood to it. But wood is everywhere around here if you want to go to the trouble of processing it.

Heating oil is $5.89/go.

Not sure it is an insane level or not.


Yesterday the news said it could go up 25%.
Wasn't sure if that meant from an old price or the current.
Today I hear of an impending diesel shortage,
If that happens heating oil may well increase 25% above current.
$7/gal might just be insane.

You shouldn't burn anything that expensive!

There is heating oil shortages already and it’s not even cold yet.

That looks cold !!!!!!

We'll get a few days of real winter here....sun comes out & melts driveway & streets by noon

Having the house facing south & lots of windows......well insulated & it's easy to heat

The NG bill currently runs $95/month...then re adjusted in June to cover the cold months...jumps to $115 ish (equal pay)

NG Radiant tube heat for the garage is wonderful !

The 110V mini split system really works so well to save main furnace from running..heat or AC

pic.......occasional winter day....mountains get the brunt of the storms

No skin of my back (prick), I can see what size they are. And I'm also pretty sure that in Ontario, Canada the regs are pretty much the same as they are here. Or another words there is no specified specs for distance for a 125-gallon tank or less. But you have 4 right next to each other which means the distance requirements for the total capacity of the 4 tanks combined. Or another words 10 feet from the building and 3 feet spacing between the individual tanks. Doesn't matter if they are hooked up in parallel, or just one hooked up and the other just sitting in storage. As I say, no skin off my back. Also, while propane is a heavy gas, when there is a leak, during the process of disconnecting, and while bleeding, it can go anywhere and usually does.

Family is employed by an oil company that delivers HO, and LP,
along with c-stores. I used to haul for them.
They have been having sparrodic trouble getting diesel for months.
No issues with HO, kero is just unavailable through the Buckeye Pipeline,
They now have to pay to have it hauled in from near Pittsburgh.

They are aware of the impending issue, but their storage is limited to
transfer capacity. Over 10,000 customers, and they can only store about 2 days worth of product.

Hey Phil,

Did you not read that "the tank array" is certified !!

It was right there, not even in fine print !

That usually means that the professional, who writes the certification, knows that all laws have been followed & is thus safe, both for the residents & the company employees filling the system.

For a dickhead, with no skin in the game, you seem overly invested.

You really are, a retarded little man.

Here's hoping, your weekend, lives up to your expectations.
