How Does Natural Gas Save Money?

It Comes Ready to use
Electricity has to be generated far from you. By the time it arrives at your home 73% of the original energy generated is gone. Natural gas comes to your home as pure power ready to use. Using natural gas appliances for heating, water heating, cooking, and clothes drying not only saves on your monthly utility bills it also lowers greenhouse gas emissions.

There’s a lot of it
The world’s natural gas reserves are so substantial that there is enough to fuel the world’s energy needs for the next 250 years. And that’s before we even take into account the increasingly efficient power generation technologies. Let us hook you up by finding who supplies natural gas to your home and get you connected.

Measurement / Definitions

Natural Gas is usually measured by volume and is stated in cubic feet. A cubic foot of gas is the amount of gas needed to fill a volume of one cubic foot under set conditions of pressure and temperature. To measure larger amounts of natural gas, a “therm” is used to denote 100 cubic feet, and “mcf” is used to denote 1,000 cubic feet.

To provide greater accuracy in comparing fuels, energy content is measured in terms of “British Thermal Units (BTU’s).” A BTU is the amount of heat required to raise one pound of water (approximately a pint), one-degree Fahrenheit at or close to its point of maximum density.

The energy content of natural gas differs in various locations throughout the country. For the sake of comparison, one average cubic foot of natural gas is about 1,000 BTU’s of heat energy.
