September 22nd marks the first day of fall! With highlights that include turning and falling foliage, Homecoming dances, Halloween, and the official start to bonfire season, it’s the favorite time of year for many. It’s also an important reminder that winter is mere weeks away and that cold temperatures and icy precipitation could arrive unexpectedly at any time.
The employee-owners of Ferrellgas want to help propane homeowners prepare for whatever Old Man Winter has in store for us this year, and fall is the best time to do it.
For starters, if you’re not a member of Ferrellgas’ Auto Fill program, where propane deliveries are automatically scheduled when our records indicate customers need a refill, it’s important to periodically check your propane tank level. This is especially true leading up to and during the coldest months of the year. We ask that Will Call customers contact us when their tank percentage reaches 30% and to give us a minimum of seven business days to make a delivery. Switching to Auto Fill is easy, and there’s still plenty of time to do so before winter arrives. And don’t forget that when combined with Ferrellgas’ Auto Fill service, digital tank monitors offer additional assurances by providing real-time tank level information via your MyFerrellgas account.
Is your furnace ready to do its important job again this winter? You’d be wise not to take it for granted. Ferrellgas recommends having your furnace inspected by a qualified technician annually. Don’t put it off another year! A comprehensive assessment of one of your home’s most important appliances helps ensure your furnace is operating safely and effectively. HVAC professionals are busy and their calendars fill up quickly this time of year. Consider scheduling your inspection today.
Enjoy all that fall has to offer, but know that the first freeze will be here before we know it. Use the fall months to make the most important wintertime decisions for your propane-powered home.
