Clean and Effecient

Natural Gas is the cleanest and most efficient fossil fuel.

99% of the natural gas we use in the United States comes from North America and supplies are abundant. Natural gas is today’s environmental energy choice and Mt. Carmel Public Utility Co. is pleased to provide natural gas services to residences and businesses in Mt. Carmel, IL, some areas of rural Wabash County, and the Villages of Allendale, Patton, Saint Francisville, Bellmont, Keensburg, and Cowling, IL. To find out if natural gas is available to your home or business, you can contact our office and we will survey and determine the closest and most affordable route to your premise.

There are many reasons why natural gas is the right fuel, and here are a few...

Convenience

With natural gas, you will have a steady source of fuel. Underground pipelines mean there is no disruption of supply due to storms or power outages. In addition, you’ll love the convenience that natural gas adds to your home- from instant, cozy heat to precision cooking and nice warm showers.

Clean

Unlike other heat sources that leave ashes and odors, natural gas is a clean burning fuel.

Versatility

Natural gas can do more than just heat your home. It can be used for water heating, cooking, clothes drying, fireplaces, outdoor barbeques, heated swimming pools and hot tubs, in addition to heating your home. Natural gas also has many commercial and industrial uses, for heating to manufacturing.

Economical

Using natural gas may save you money. The cost of running appliances with gas vs. electricity is still the best energy buy. Natural gas appliances are very low maintenance, as well.

Abundant Supply

With the increased focus on environmental issues, natural gas provides the most “green” form of energy. It is a natural resource in abundant supply in the United States and, when compared to other power supplies, produces no CO2 emissions, making it the fuel of choice for many Americans.
