ABOUT US
Since 1998, with a solid reputation and core competency in central propane gas systems, HBH Gas Systems offers propane suppliers and retailers the opportunity to own and operate community propane systems for residential and commercial developments where natural gas is not available. By installing one central propane tank for an entire development and installing underground mains to each lot, propane marketers can market and provide metered central gas for their customers.
