Celebrating 100 Years of Service in Central PA
Our roots began in Quarryville in 1917 when Jerome H. Rhoads began selling kerosene from the back of a rail car. Today, Rhoads Energy has grown to become a family of companies that offers a variety of products and services to meet the needs of our customers as a full-service energy provider. 100 years later, Rhoads Energy continues to stay true to Mr. Rhoads legacy where our employees and customers are the foundation of our locally-owned and family operated business.
Commercial Natural Gas
- Local provider, local service: Rhoads Energy enables commercial customers of UGI or PECO to get a competitive estimate on natural gas rates — same natural gas, same delivery lines, different rates. And, while natural gas rates fluctuate, we are often able to offer lower and more stable rates to commercial users.
- Seeking solutions together: Our long-term business strategy: help customers solve problems. We operate as an advocate for the customer, helping to identify energy cost savings — even if that occasionally means directing a customer to another energy option.
- Equipment expertise: Our team has installed and serviced hundreds of natural gas systems in all settings, including commercial applications. We also specialize in converting oil heat systems to natural gas, when that makes the most sense for a commercial customer.
- You know your technician: Our customers enjoy top-notch service from certified natural gas technicians – highly skilled workers employed by Rhoads Energy, not subcontractors who may be from outside our area.
Commercial Propane
- Reliability and value: Our team combines fast, safe delivery with competitively priced propane. Need automatic fill service? Well handle it for you.
- Flexibility: Customers can either purchase or lease propane tanks with no money down. With Rhoads Energy, the choice is yours.
- Quality: Our propane team has decades of experience in the installation of commercial propane equipment. Annual continuing education enables our propane technicians to focus on quality and safety when we maintain your propane system
