What is propane?

Propane, also known as liquefied petroleum (LP) gas, is a by-product of natural gas and crude oil refining and is a popular fuel source for residential, commercial and farm uses.

Residential Propane Uses:

Many homeowners chose propane as a reliable, clean, economical energy source. Propane is especially popular for homes in areas where city natural gas mains don't reach. Propane is much cheaper than electricity. In fact, it is about half as expensive, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.

Commercial Propane Uses:

Because propane is a clean-burning, reliable energy source, many businesses choose it for powering vehicles, generators and manufacturing processes. Many businesses also use propane just as our residential customers do: for heating a building, cooking, decorative lighting and water heating. Even if propane is not the primary fuel source, many businesses use it as a secondary or temporary fuel source.

Farm Propane Uses: Because propane can go virtually anywhere, it is a perfect option for farm uses. Blackhawk Propane supplies propane for agricultural applications throughout our area's rural regions.

Services/Products
  • At Blackhawk Propane, we strive to make our all of our services, including our billing process, as convenient as possible. Keep-Full Service Blackhawk Propane' convenient Keep-Full Service helps customers ensure they never run out of propane, especially during the winter heating season. This service is offered at no extra charge to our customers. Pre-Buy Programs For cost-conscious homeowners, Blackhawk Propane also offers the money-saving pre-buy program. Customers can opt to purchase a year's worth of propane fuel during the off-season summer months of July and August. This guarantees a firm price for the number of gallons you anticipate using before March 31 of the next year, so price fluctuations won't be a factor during the high-demand heating season. We offer two payment options for the pre-buy program: * Full-payment - We offer our lowest per-gallon rate to customers who provide full payment including applicable sales tax by the mid-August pre-buy deadline. * Six Payment Plan - Following a deposit based on the number of gallons you contract for, you can make six equal monthly payments starting in September.
