Comparative Heating Systems Study
A 2010 study by market research firm Newport Partners showed that propane-fueled systems performed strongly in all regions of the country as measured by several key factors.
The 2010 Comparative Heating Study by Newport Partners evaluated 14 heating systems in 16 locations across the United States in both new and existing homes. Overall, the study showed that propane-fueled systems performed strongly in all regions of the country as measured by simple return on investment, lower CO2 emissions, and efficacy as a backup system.
