At PARAGON Propane, we operate with some core values in mind. As a primary propane supplier for North Carolina businesses, we function with integrity and the end user in mind. This means that clients come first. We go above and beyond to provide hassle-free ordering, simple agreements, affordable pricing and efficient, on-time delivery.
It’s important to us that, whether you’ve ordered a 20lb bbq propane tank or regularly order multiple 33lb forklift tanks, you get what you need at the right price. The goal of our work is to support businesses that rely on propane for their daily operations.
Propane is the right choice for many companies. Construction vehicles, large and small equipment, valuable or precision machines and more all use propane as a cleaner, safer alternative to other forms of fuel. We take our commitment to providing this eco-friendly propane to businesses throughout the metropolitan Charlotte area.
PARAGON Propane started in Florida, where as part of Fahrenheit Propane the company made its name as one of the fastest-growing and the most reliable propane cylinder exchange companies in the state. Its growing reputation as a dependable company with excellent services earned it business with customers who range from the world's largest corporations to small business operators. Customer service and absolute satisfaction were always the first and main priority.
Propane is a clean-burning, carbon-based fuel. Propane-powered machines can actually reduce carbon dioxide emissions by as much as 30%. Directly using propane for cooking, clothes drying or operating machinery can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 50%. This net positive impact on the environment is just one of the reasons propane is a great choice for Charlotte businesses.
Other positive reasons to use propane include that it is:
Because of propane’s molecular structure, it can be compressed into vapor or liquid form and easily transported in propane cylinders. A propane cylinder delivery or propane cylinder exchange service alleviates the historical issues of access to fuels sources like natural gas. In contrast to electricity, propane doesn’t deplete on-site resources, making it a longer-lasting option for fuel. As long as you have a reliable propane supplier, the fact that propane can be delivered anywhere, safely swapped out in minutes makes it an incredibly versatile and non-disruptive option for any business in any stage of operation.
Compared to natural gas, propane delivers more thermal units per gallon and burns less volume per hour. In terms of efficiency, propane outperforms natural gas by a factor of 2:1. This makes it a viable and appealing alternative for businesses who want to refuel less frequently and ultimately get more performance out of a fuel source with less downtime. In addition to the logistical efficiency of propane use, propane is 2.5 times more energy dense than natural gas. In terms of heat, this translates into a 2.5 times higher burn heat, which is ideal for everything from patio heaters to running generators or engines.
With 98% less particle emissions than diesel, no soot/hydrogen/oxide/nitrogen emissions and completely water-soluble and non-toxic, propane is widely considered to be the safest fuel choice for numerous applications. The propane industry is regulated and monitored, so all cylinders are subject to inspection and the right safety measures are in place. For teams, employees or even customers, proximity to propane is not a safety hazard. From pressure relief valves on cylinders to clean-burning patio heaters, propane for your business is a very safety-conscious choice.
Propane is not a limited, natural resource. Propane is derived from the oil refining and natural gas process. Unlike natural gas or other resources that are naturally occurring (and can be depleted), propane use doesn’t drain natural resources and won’t run out. This makes it a long-term option. Many businesses realize this, as more and more construction equipment, machinery and vehicles are being adapted to run on propane.
This burden is alleviated when you have a trustworthy propane delivery or propane cylinder exchange service like ours. To maintain tanks yourself, you’ll have to keep up with inspections and maintain your cylinders (checking for leaks, damage or corrosion). Keeping and maintaining your own propane cylinders also contributes to overhead, because they will eventually need repair or replacement.
When you partner with PARAGON Propane, we take care of all of that for you, simply delivering your ordered propane on-time, everytime. Because the propane tanks belong to us, we’re responsible for all of their maintenance and repair.
