Fuel Delivery in Ohio

We're not in Ohio yet — drop your email and we'll tell you the moment local dealers join.

Ohio runs from Lake Erie and the Cleveland-Toledo industrial belt down through Columbus and Cincinnati to the Ohio River and the Appalachian foothills in the southeast; propane covers Amish country and the rural Appalachian counties. Across the Great Lakes region, propane fills the gap for whole-home heat, hot water, cooking, and standby generators across the parts of Ohio that sit beyond the natural-gas mains.

How Ohio heats its homes

American Community Survey 2022 5-year estimates, rounded for narrative use:

  • Natural gas: ≈65% of housing units
  • Heating oil and kerosene: ≈3% of housing units
  • Propane (LP-Gas): ≈4% of housing units
  • Electricity: ≈22% of housing units
  • Wood, solar, and other / no fuel: ≈6% of housing units

The mix tilts toward natural gas in the populated corridors and propane out in the dispersed rural counties.

Heating climate in Ohio

Ohio averages about 5,800 heating degree days per year — a long, cool heating season. Heating demand drives the propane delivery cycle from the first hard frost through the last spring cold snap, with usage swinging sharply between mild and severe winters.

Nearby states

Ohio shares a land border with Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania. Once dealers join from any of these states we’ll surface them here so you can compare delivery options across the regional market.

Propane installations are governed by NFPA 58, the Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code — the consensus standard for storage, transfer, dispensing, and use of LP-Gas. NFPA 58 is widely adopted by reference into state and local fire codes, and state and local Authorities Having Jurisdiction (the AHJ) — typically the state fire marshal’s office, local fire departments, and building/permitting offices — enforce setback distances, tank-placement clearances, installer-licensing requirements, and any state-specific overlay on top of NFPA 58. Always confirm permitting and inspection requirements with a licensed installer and your local AHJ before any tank install, modification, or fuel switch.

“This code shall apply to the storage, handling, transportation, and use of liquefied petroleum gas (LP-Gas).”
