Heating of agricultural buildings

Propane is an ideal energy source for heating farm buildings in grain and livestock production, and greenhouses to produce plants and vegetables.

It allows for precise temperature control, as unit heaters or radiators can be wall-mounted or simply hung to produce instant localized heat. Portable units can also be used as a backup heat source. Convenient, economical and safe, propane heaters offer many advantages. They are:

  • Available in a wide range of heating capacities and wattages.
  • More energy efficient than central heating because they deliver heat when and where it is needed.
  • Easy to maintain and they have a longer life span than electric heating systems.
  • Generally more economical than electric systems for the same BTU output.
