Natural gas is the most cost-efficient energy source available. Incentives are often available to help cover the initial conversion costs, and you will notice that your monthly expenditure on energy consumption drops significantly in most cases.

What is a gigajoule?

In New Brunswick and Canada, natural gas is normally measured in Gigajoules (GJ), the metric version of the British Thermal Unit (BTU). The amount of energy consumed each year in a typical Canadian home is equivalent to 135 gigajoules. One gigajoule is equivalent to roughly 30 liters of gasoline, 34 liters of propane, 26 liters of heating oil, and 278 kilowatt-hours of electricity.
