Propane for Care Facilities and Governments
Backup power
We don’t need to tell you that the weather in our state can be unpredictable and often dangerous. A hurricane or tropical storm can knock out power for days, but our most vulnerable residents depend on facilities that need continuous power. That’s why propane standby generators serve such an essential role, ensuring continuous power for the following uses:
Air conditioning through the hottest parts of the year in nursing homes and assisted-living centers
Medical and mobility equipment in hospitals and senior-living facilities
Communication technology for police stations, emergency response centers and other public safety coordination sites
Lights and other critical electronics in schools, day cares and other places where children receive care
Data server rooms containing crucial information
Propane has a virtually unlimited shelf life, meaning it will always be ready when your standby generator goes on. And with a properly sized propane tank, you can be sure that you’ll have adequate backup power to ride out a blackout and keep your residents safe.
Laundry and sanitation in care facilities
Propane for health care facilities goes beyond backup power and includes one of the most essential needs of hospitals, senior-care centers, rehab centers, etc.: cleaning linens, instruments and dishes. It also extends to bathing patients and residents. These tasks all require a steady supply of hot water. When it comes to water heaters, propane’s robust heat generation means that propane-fired units have some of the best recovery rates available. Care facilities trust propane water heaters for laundry and general sanitation needs.
Similarly, propane clothes dryers offer some of the quickest drying cycles for linens and uniforms. Additionally, they produce a slightly humid heat that leaves less static electricity and lessens wear and tear. It all adds up to better comfort for patients and cost savings for caregivers.
Food preparation for schools, nursing homes and more
Students need good meals to be able to learn. Patients must eat while they recuperate, and assisted-living facilities provide multiple meals a day to residents. These are just a few examples of the food preparation needs that propane equipment meets in kitchens and cafeterias.
Propane-powered cooktops, ovens, broilers, fryers, steam tables and warmers ensure that schools and care centers can provide hot, tasty food for Floridians young and old.

A lot goes into helping a community run, and governments need to fuel much equipment to keep things moving. Florida’s propane dealers are happy to deliver propane and supply propane-fired equipment to support public works in the following ways:
