HBH Gas Systems Announces Central Propane Tank Installation at Fort Worth, Texas Development on Eagle Mountain Lake

From October 18, 2007 --

On Thursday, October 4, 2007, Ferrellgas installed a 30,000 gallon propane tank contracted by HBH Gas Systems as part of the Central Gas Distribution System that will fuel The Resort at Eagle Mountain Lake, a golf course and clubhouse community west of Fort Worth, Texas.

The Resort on Eagle Mountain Lake is a large primary residence and resort community located off of the natural gas grid. The Developer wanted the marketing advantages of gas supplied and operated by a large, competent company that has demonstrated sufficient capacity to serve a development of this size. The team at HBH Gas Systems has unsurpassed expertise in the implementation of systems designed to serve off-grid developments.

Central Gas Systems offer the developer the option of steering their off-grid developments away from carbon-heavy electricity toward more sustainable development fueled by gas. These systems are economical, saving homeowners about 50% on their heating bills when compared to electric heating. Moreover, a recent American Gas Association study showed that most homeowners demand the luxury of dual fuels for their cooking and heating requirements. Homeowners in The Resort at Eagle Mountain Lake will have the peace-of-mind associated with using an alternative green fuel as classified by the Clean Air Act and the Energy Policy Act. In fact, one home fueled by an HBH central gas system in lieu of electricity effectively offsets the annual carbon emissions from one average vehicle.

The Resort on Eagle Mountain Lake is a 540-acre master planned, gated, luxury residential Fort Worth golf community on the shores of Eagle Mountain Lake. The Resort boasts approximately 650 single family and condominium lots, a clubhouse, common areas, and a golf course. For the serious nature lover, there are over 40 acres of private open space with nature trails, private parks and picnic areas. Also, a private island belongs to every resident of The Resort and offers additional private beaches as well as a water park for children. Central Gas Systems provide domestically produced propane to each individual home from a centralized tank; it is delivered, metered, billed, and consumed in a manner virtually identical to natural gas. Furthermore, these systems allow for the implementation of high efficiency gas appliances in place of low efficiency, grid-hogging, carbon-heavy electric appliances.

HBH Gas Systems has formed a strategic partnership with Ferrellgas, the nation's 2nd largest propane retailer and 17th largest energy company. Together, they provide developments located off the natural gas grid with clean burning, economical propane from centralized tanks. HBH Gas Systems oversaw the design and implementation of the system at Eagle Mountain, while Ferrellgas will own and operate the system. Together, Ferrellgas and HBH Gas Systems will make all necessary provisions for permanent underground metered propane gas service for this sustainable and environmentally-responsible community.
