Metered Gas

Metered Propane Tank

Built under the same stringent codes as natural gas distribution systems, CES can install a propane system that can supply subdivisions, apartment complexes or commercial rentals from one centralized storage tank.  We provide everything for the developer or commercial property owner including engineering, permitting, installation and continual maintenance while eliminating the need for individual tanks and delivery trucks at each customer’s location. Very often we can be in a shared trench with electric, cable TV & telephone making installation simple for the developer.

Monthly Metered Gas Service for Residential and Commercial Customers

CES will install a bulk propane tank at your location and a meter will be placed on your home or business. We will monitor the propane tank level and the amount of propane used by the home using a cellular tank monitor dialer hooked to the tank and meter. Similar to a utility bill, we will send you a monthly invoice that reflects the actual amount of propane used the month prior.

 

This means you only pay for the propane you use, while having all the propane you need! This service is offered at NO COST to our home heating customers on automatic delivery or commercial use customers!

 

Larger propane tanks means fewer deliveries! CES will remotely monitor your propane levels and ensure your tank is always full without having to step foot on your property! In addition, be prepared for emergency situations by having a large amount of propane stored on your property. You also don’t need to worry about a delivery truck not being able to access your home due to severe weather or road closures.

 

Not a home heating customer on automatic delivery or commercial use customer but interested in this service? Perfect for the second home owners, pool heater and generator users! For only $139.99 / year, you can enjoy the benefits and peace of mind of our Monthly Metered Gas Service! Contact us today!
