Regardless of what type of comfort system you have in your home, make sure you have your system checked at least once per year. Many HVAC outfits will come twice per year (once for the air conditioning season and once for the heating season).
Either way, maintenance equals preparedness. Your HVAC tech will check over your entire system and may also check your tank connections. If you have any questions about HVAC maintenance operators in our area, call us anytime for a referral.
After a bear of a winter, we have all earned a nice long weekend that is upon us this Memorial Day Weekend. No doubt folks will be firing up the grill or heading out of town to enjoy some sun or fresh air with family and friends over the Memorial Day weekend.

Our offices will be will be closed on Monday but we will have service available for emergencies only. We will pick back up on Tuesday the 27th at our regularly office hours.

Despite the call for a small amount of snow this evening, we would be remiss in not recognizing that spring is finally now upon us. We would also be remiss in not commenting on the winter that was. The winter of 2013-2014 tested all of us in some way or another all throughout the Delaware Valley. It tested our patience, our vehicles and our ability to live without electricity for days on end.
At Styer Propane, the unrelenting winter weather tested our equipment as well as our staff. We would like to thank all of our drivers, office staff as well as our sales and support workers for stepping up to the challenge this winter by staying extra hours and working weekends to ensure our clients were served as quickly as road conditions would allow. We would also like to thank our clients for their patience and understanding during any number of snow and ice storms. Many times this winter, downed trees and power lines choked off our delivery routes making it impossible for us to avoid delays in getting propane to folks in short order.
As we move into spring and summer, we look forward to sharing with you some very cool news We invite you to stay tuned and we thank you all for your continued support of our business.
Sincerely,
The Styer Propane Team
As all of you know, propane is an excellent source of fuel for heating your home or business. But, did you know that propane is also being used for vehicles and even cool features in homes?
Propane is being used in amazing looking fireplaces that are appearing in custom built houses and additions. Absolutely worth checking out. If you are not getting the most out of propane in your home, check out all of the appliances that can be run on propane such as stoves and dryers.
Looking out of our windows we can see the snow piling up and the forecast only seems to show temps in the 20s and 30s for the next week or so. Users of propane, oil and natural gas all of the same challenges during weather like this. How do you save money on energy costs while “thinking green” at the same time?
The first thing we generally bring up with our clients is system age. How old is your current system in your home? Older systems regardless of the energy source can operate with but a fraction of the energy efficiency of today’s modern systems. Consider speaking with your HVAC professional about having a new propane system installed in your home today.
Windows and doors. Yes, as with your home’s HVAC system, there are also energy inefficiencies to be found in your home’s older windows and doors. Newer models will generally have much higher energy efficiency ratings and have a greater ability to hold in heat (or keep heat out depending on the season and desired effect).
Have you considered a programmable thermostat? Some of the newer models even sync up with your cell phone or computer. You can easily manage your home’s temperature even when you are not at home. Beyond this, you can manage the temperature of your home depending on when you are present, away or sleeping. Varying the temperature of your home based on need can help with savings on energy costs in a significant way!
