Thrifty Propane Pricing :
Commercially-available "propane" fuel, or LPG, is not pure. Typically
in the USA and Canada, it is primarily propane (at least 90%), with the
rest mostly butane and propylene (5% maximum), plus odorants. This is
the HD-5 standard, (Heavy Duty-5%maximum allowable propylene content)
written for internal combustion engines. LPG, when extracted from
natural gas, does not contain propylene. LPG, when refined from crude
oil does contain propylene. Not all products labelled "propane" conform
to this standard. In Mexico, for example, the butane content is much
higher.

We have these annual Program Options:
* Locking/Cap - This option ensures that your price per gallon
will never exceed a predetermined “cap price”. Yet, should the price of
propane on any given day be lower, you will receive the lower price. A
processing fee will also apply.
* Pre-Buy - You may pre-buy your propane. With this option, there is no required time limit on when you must use your fuel.
