As the cold winter continues, some propane companies in New Hampshire are facing a unique challenge: higher demand. But here's where it gets controversial... While state officials assure us that there's no propane shortage, the increased demand has led to potential delivery delays. The National Propane Gas Association attributes this to the extreme cold weather, resulting in higher propane usage. Superior Plus Propane, a major player in the state, has issued a statement to its customers, noting the potential for delays due to the surge in demand. So, what does this mean for you? Consumer protection officials offer some insight. They suggest that while major companies might face supply issues, smaller propane providers could operate as usual. However, customers may experience partial tank fills, meaning that a typical 20% or 30% fuel delivery might be reduced to 10% or 15%. But don't worry, you'll still get your propane! So, if you're in need of a top-up, it's a good idea to reach out to your propane company earlier than usual. This way, you can ensure you have enough fuel to keep your home warm during the winter months. And this is the part most people miss... Remember, while there's no propane shortage, the increased demand could impact delivery schedules. So, stay informed and plan ahead to avoid any disruptions to your propane supply.
