According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 49% of Texans use electricity to heat their homes, and another 43% use natural gas. Only 6% use propane fuel and 2% either use an alternative or don’t use any fuel at all. Dallas residents have numerous choices when it comes to heating their homes, and choosing the right one for your family could translate to very real savings.

Electronic billing means that you will receive a billing summary in your email with a link that will allow you to log into the Account Center so that you can pay online. Or if you prefer, there are payment centers located throughout the area for you to stop in and pay your bill in person.
- Northwest Propane Gas Company – One of the great features of this company is that they understand how important it is to monitor levels of propane remotely in order to keep your tank from running out of fuel. There is nothing worse than being caught in the shower or in the middle of cooking when the gas goes out, not to mention coming home to a cold house and having to wait until the gas company can fill your tank. Northwest Propane is one of the most experienced propane gas companies in the Dallas area, and they are able to set up seasonal estimates to schedule refills for you, or you have the choice of opting for satellite fuel level monitoring. This method of tracking will ensure that you always have the fuel you need. Their budgeting system helps you get the best price for your fuel, and keeps you from being hit with huge gas bills during periods of high consumption.
- Kozy Services – Other than natural gas, one of the most fuel efficient heating systems for the Dallas area might just be the heat pump. It runs on electricity and, unlike other systems that convert heat from fuel, the heat pump moves heat from the outdoors and draws it into your home. If you heat by electricity, you may want to consider installing a heat pump to save money on your heating costs.
