In Fort Myers, the fuel choice depends heavily on your specific address. TECO Peoples Gas serves portions of downtown Fort Myers, South Fort Myers, and limited parts of Cape Coral, but most of Lee County—including nearly all of Cape Coral, Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel, Pine Island, Bonita Springs, and Estero—does not have natural gas utility service. For those addresses, propane is the right choice, typically with a 500 to 1,000 gallon tank for multi-day hurricane runtime.
Where natural gas is available, it’s the better choice: unlimited runtime (no tank to refill), no storage permits, and lower long-term cost versus delivered propane. During your free GenerX estimate, we confirm natural gas availability at your specific address and walk through both options based on fuel economics and your expected runtime needs.
