Benefits of Switching From Propane to Electric
Affordable
Unlike propane and oil heating, electric heating costs remain stable over the years. Electricity is currently a cheaper option for heating and is predicted to remain so for many years.
Safe and Reliable
With no burning materials, flammable gases or harmful fumes, electric heating is the safest possible heating solution for your home. Efficient electric appliances typically involve heat pumps or induction technology which have become increasingly more reliable versus early versions of those technologies.
Convenient
The Ameren Illinois electric system is already connected to your home to deliver electricity in a reliable manner. You never need to worry about running low on fuel, scheduling tank refills or maintaining storage tanks.
Natural Gas Options
If switching to electric doesn’t meet your needs, you may have the option of switching from propane to natural gas. Ameren Illinois continually expands and upgrades its energy delivery system to meet the needs of growing communities. This means Residential customers may be able to choose natural gas as an option for heating.
