Propane is popular because it's cost-effective and readily available. It is also clean burning, and can be used for a variety of applications, including heating, cooking, dryers, fireplaces, direct hook-up to grills, etc. At Dependable Energy, we not only deliver propane, but we can install an array of propane powered units in your household. Our drivers and technicians are fully licensed and insured in the Greater Waterbury area and are happy to provide full services to you.
Automatic delivery is based on a degree day system, which is calculated by using the outside temperature along with your usage history to determine when your next delivery should be scheduled. This works best on normal heat and hot water accounts.
If you use propane for something other than heat and hot water, such as a log set or for cooking, your deliveries can be set up on a Julian system. This means it is based on calendar days and not the outside temperature. For this reason, if you find yourself using more than usual you should still check your level and let us know if you need an early delivery.

Heating your home with propane is a great option given today’s technology in residential boilers and furnaces. We install all types of systems, most of which offer extremely high-efficiency conversion of fuel to heat. For propane storage, we offer all types of tanks and tank configuration installation options.
These tanks can be installed underground or aboveground. Propane heating systems generally require less maintenance than oil-fired systems. Also, high efficiency heating systems are much more compact than older style boilers and furnaces. They can free up space in your basement, including eliminating your oil tank.
Backup generators are a great way to protect yourself from potential power outages from the utility electrical providers. If you have a well pump and septic system, a standby generator can help get you through the power outages without concern. Standby generators generally start once a week to test themselves and to make sure it’s ready if the power goes out. An electrician wires your system so that if the power goes out, you’ll have power back automatically.
While there are numerous ways to fuel your backup generator, propane is a popular option because the fuel can stay in your tank for months, or years without concern of degradation. A whole-home generator will keep your boiler or furnace running, your refrigerator going, your air conditioning system working, and any other electric appliances your home and family depend on.
We often take hot water for granted. We use it to cook, clean our dishes, laundry, showers, baths and much more. Propane is yet another popular choice for heating your water because of the options available. If you need a large tank, we can install one. Today, more folks are installing on-demand water heaters because it decreases your energy consumption, saves space, and delivers unlimited hot water when sized and installed properly.
Some people say that you can’t install on-demand water heaters with well water, but that is not true. Some systems may benefit by adding additional filtration and treatment prolonging the expected life of the system. On-demand water heaters provide endless hot water and only heat the water when you need it. There’s no reason to keep water hot throughout the work/school day when no one’s home, or at night while everyone’s asleep.
Propane is a safe and efficient fuel source, but like any fuel, it must be used properly. Care should be taken to avoid leaks, and all appliances should be properly vented. Propane should never be used indoors without adequate ventilation. At Dependable Energy, we are committed to providing our customers with safe and reliable propane service. Call us today to schedule an in-house estimate to learn more about how we can help you meet your propane needs.

Reviews
"I am so very pleased with the service I received from Dependable Energy. I called Dependable in December when we noticed it staying cool in the house. We thought the furnace was broken since we did not hear it kick on. Dependable sent a service tech out and discovered it was a broken thermostat and it was replaced in a half hour. We could feel the difference pretty quickly. And now that our heating system is working properly, we believe the thermostat was broken since last winter! Thank you Dependable Energy for our new found warmth!!!"

"I have been a propane and HVAC air installation/service customer for about a year and a half and am consistently satisfied with Dependable. Their staff are friendly and knowledgeable and I have never had a concern with them being in or around my home even if I'm not there. They generally have responded timely even in busy periods such as the dead of winter and after storms. I know there have been instances where another company might have tried to upcharge me for equipment or services I don't need, but I feel Dependable has always been honest with me regarding what we need."
