Natural Gas
"Hook Up to Natural Gas!"

If you are already living by an established gas main, connecting to natural gas may be easier than you think.

  Consider switching:
  • Furnace
  • Range
  • Water heater
  • Dryer
  • Fireplace
  • Grill

      Why switch?
  • Natural gas is the cleanest burning of all fossil fuels -- it's called natural for a reason!
  • Natural gas is dependable and reliably supplied
  • Natural gas heating equipment allows for a high level of comfort with low maintenance costs
  • Cooking with a natural gas range provides instant heat and more control
  • Save money heating your water with a natural gas water heater and get hot water faster
  • Dry clothes faster with a gas dryer
  • No wood to chop and no mess to clean with natural gas fireplaces
  • Natural gas grills help create your grilling masterpiece. No tanks to return or fill

Call Energy Services at 646-5250 and ask to speak to a natural gas marketing specialist. A marketing specialist will assist with your questions and provide additional information.
