Winter of 2025–2026 was one for the record books in the Tri-State area.
From the “New Year’s Deep Freeze” to the back-to-back Nor’easters that buried Sullivan and Orange Counties in February, our local infrastructure was put to the test.
For many homeowners—especially those with second homes in the Catskills or Poconos—the cold wasn’t just an inconvenience; it was a source of constant anxiety. When temperatures drop below zero in January, the clock starts ticking. If your propane tank runs dry, your furnace stops, your pipes freeze, and you’re looking at thousands of dollars in water damage before you even realize there’s a problem.
At Combined Energy Services (CES), we believe you shouldn’t have to check your tank with a flashlight in a snowstorm. That’s why we are revolutionizing how the Northeast stays warm with Wireless Propane Tank Monitoring.
Why Wireless Monitoring is a Game-Changer for Remote Owners
If you live in NYC or North Jersey and own a property “upstate,” you can’t always be there to check the gauge. A wireless monitor acts as your eyes and ears on the ground.
- Real-Time Data: View your exact fuel level from your smartphone, anywhere in the world.
- Frozen Pipe Prevention: By ensuring you never dip below a critical level during a “Polar Vortex,” you keep the heat running and the pipes flowing.
- Efficiency for Everyone: These monitors send an instant alert to our dispatch team. This allows CES to optimize our delivery routes, ensuring we get to you before you’re in a crisis, even when roads are treacherous.
The CES Advantage: Smart Technology, Small Price
We want every high-use customer in the Hudson Valley and Tri-State area to have this peace of mind. That is why we’ve made the math simple:
- FREE Monitoring: If you use 200 gallons or more of propane per year for your primary heating, Combined Energy Services will provide and maintain your wireless tank monitor for $0.
- Less Than $1/Day: For seasonal users, pool heater owners, or lower-usage customers, you can get the same professional monitoring for less than a dollar a day.
Don’t Let Next Winter Catch You Off Guard
After the volatility of this past winter, “guessing” your fuel level is no longer a viable strategy. Wireless monitoring allows CES to provide a level of precision that traditional “degree day” forecasting simply can’t match.
