Propane

Propane remains a popular fuel choice for a multitude of uses because it is abundant, efficient and environmentally friendly. Stem Brothers began offering propane over thirty years ago and we continue to grow as a reliable, responsible marketer.

Stem Brothers has put in place supply contracts with major marketers throughout the New Jersey/Pennsylvania area guaranteeing us ample product supply year to year. As our delivery areas have expanded, so has our trained staff and fleet of propane bobtails. We don’t want to see anyone left out in the cold - that’s why we are proud to say we’ve been here for over 75 years!

Aside from residential home heating use, propane is now most frequently used for back-up generator supply.

Need to be Safe if Thinking about Using Propane in Natural Gas Appliances

Can my natural gas appliances use propane?

  1. Most likely yes, but... natural gas appliances SHOULD NOT be used with propane unless a qualified service technician has made required adjustments to the appliance.
  2. Contact Stem Brothers to convert the appliance and connect to the tanks.
  3. Gas system regulators used for natural gas and propane systems and appliances are different. Although the conversion process may seem simple, do not attempt this yourself.
  4. A Stem Brothers qualified technician must perform a leak test after tanks, piping, or appliances have been installed or modified in your home or business gas system.
  5. Not sure what to do? Call Stem Brothers at (908) 995-4825 or 996-4441.
