What Are The Benefits Of Propane?
- Propane heat is hotter than electric heat: A propane gas furnace heats air to about 130 degrees F to 140 degrees F.
- Safe to store: Propane can be stored safely in a tank on your property, while electricity is subject to power outages.
- Propane furnaces last longer than electric heat pumps: Propane-fueled furnaces last 5 to 10 years longer than electric heat pumps, on average. Propane is more dependable than electricity.
- Built-in safety properties: Propane won’t ignite when combined with air unless the source of ignition reaches 940 degrees.
- Propane is clean: Propane is an approved alternative fuel listed in both the Clean Air Act of 1990 and the National Energy Policy Act of 1992.
How Long Does A Propane Furnace Last in Madison, CT?
A propane furnace lifespan is around 15-30 years. With regular, scheduled, yearly furnace maintenance, your furnace should easily last over 15 years.

Leslie - Madison, CT
Jared was very polite and efficient
Great experience and service
Sherry - Madison, CT
I was extremely pleased with the men (Jared, Will, Roger, Kevin, Max) who installed my furnace. They were polite, hard working, respectful and very knowledgeable. They explained everything to me and answered my questions. They left the work space very clean. I am so thankful for a job well done! I would like to become a Wilcox customer for both oil and propane. Kevin and Max explained everything to me. Max said it would extend my warranty on the furnace to 3 years for all parts and labor instead of just 1 year. I also would get .10 off each gallon of propane. Given the experience I had, I would very much like to continue working with Wilcox Fuel. Sherry Leone

We are an existing customer and determined that our existing boiler, which we knew was cracked, wasn’t going to work this heating season. I placed a “no heat call” on a Thursday morning and had a new boiler and indirect h2o heater installed by Friday afternoon. Outstanding response and service. Great products and good value too. Thank you Vidal, Mac, David and the whole team at Wilcox. I’m a customer for life.
