| Central Gas System & Lakefront community take shape together  As the beautiful custom homes, lakeside condominiums and gorgeous facilities at Hill County Harbor rise from the Texas Hill Country around Possum Kingdom Lake, so does the fully turn-key, underground piped Central Gas System being implemented by HBH Gas Systems of Austin, Texas. Located near Fort Worth, Texas, this community sits in a rustic lakeside setting that is too far from the natural gas grid for extensions to be viable. Still, the developers knew that their discerning homeowners would demand gas to fuel their stoves, outdoor kitchens, tankless water heaters, and many more amenities. Moreover, the developers desired a number of other gas features, such as poolside torches and gas lamps throughout the community. Building this community all-electric - the least desirable and most environmentally unfriendly method - simply wasn't an option.Without natural gas, the developers had two options: either install unsightly and inefficient individual tanks at each home and facility, or turn to HBH Gas Systems to implement a turn-key Central Gas System that will provide individually metered gas through underground pipes to each building. The decision was easy to make. Central Gas Systems, sometimes referred to as Central Propane Distribution Systems or Community LP Gas Systems, provide propane from a centralized tank in a manner identical to a natural gas system. HBH Gas Systems manages the system design and installation, as well as the gas delivery, service and individual customer billing. With a Central Gas System from HBH Gas Systems, the developer and builder will benefit from the many marketing advantages afforded by their ability to offer underground metered gas service. The homeowners will enjoy considerable cost savings: residents of the Harbor could likely save up to 50% on their utility bills by using propane from this Central Gas System in lieu of electricity. All of these benefits of central gas systems compliment the fact that the gas appliances and amenities will bring increased levels of comfort and convenience to the residents of Hill Country Harbor. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Construction News :: home page |
