Developers and Builders working off the grid have found a
solution to their dual-fuels requirements: Propane Gas Systems from HBH
Gas Systems. The systems provide clean, economical LP gas to
off grid developments worldwide.
The phrase "Off Grid" typically refers to life beyond the
energy infrastructure. Off Grid houses are eco-friendly solutions to
our reliance on the overwhelmingly carbon-heavy electric grid. Central
Gas Systems effectively decrease the number of homes that are built
all-electric. HBH's propane systems can even power backup generators
for renewable energy initiatives such as wind and solar generation.
Off grid communities are located beyond the reach of the
natural gas infrastructure, or where the cost of main line extensions
is prohibitively high to provide a community with gas service.
Developers and builders working off the grid have traditionally had
only one option: build all-electric homes. The disadvantages of this
option are clear and wide-ranging. All-electric homes are much more
expensive to heat than homes fueled by gas (in fact, it costs about
twice as much to heat a home with electricity than with propane).
Moreover, homeowners simply prefer having gas in their homes - from the
familiar blue flame of a gas range to the warmer air from a gas
furnace. From an environmental standpoint, the benefits are clear: a
home that uses LP gas instead of electricity for space and water
heating effectively offsets the carbon emissions or one average
vehicle. Central Propane Systems from HBH Gas Systems offer the only
viable alternative to building less desirable, less efficient
all-electric homes.
Off grid living is increasingly becoming affiliated with
eco-friendly practices. Living off the grid, going green, and reducing
carbon footprints are integral parts of a sustainable future. HBH Gas
Systems meets the demands of consumers and green builders by providing
centralized, metered service of an alternative green energy recognized
by the Clean Air Act and the Energy Policy Act. When developers choose
to provide their off grid developments with gas from an HBH gas system,
their decision reflects a commitment to sustainable development and
eco-friendly living - all while enjoying the tremendous marketing
advantage of offering dual-fuels in their communities. Builders benefit
from the implementation of high efficiency gas appliances in place of
low efficiency, grid-hogging, carbon-heavy electric appliances.
