Services
Kimlin Energy is a third-generation family-owned fuel services provider locally owned and operated right here in the Hudson Valley region. Founded in 1982 in Ulster County as a propane company by Douglas Kimlin, the company has grown over the years to include propane and heating oil delivery, equipment installation and service, and commercial fuels services.
Gasoline has risen more than a dollar more per gallon vs. a year ago. Natural gas prices have skyrocketed more than 150%. Crude oil prices have climbed above $80 per barrel, a level we haven't seen in seven years. The cost of electricity has not been spared either. Higher natural gas prices result in price hikes for wholesale electricity because of heavy reliance on natural gas-fired power plants.
Are you noticing that more homes in your community are switching to propane, and that more new construction homes are being built to use propane? There are reasons for that. Propane is clean-burning, energy-efficient, environmentally friendly and versatile. And since almost all of the U.S. propane supply is domestically produced, there's always an abundance regardless of what happens elsewhere in the world.
If you're lucky enough to use propane in your home here in the Hudson Valley, you know that its efficiency and versatility make life better in so many ways. Propane-powered water heaters are much more efficient than electric ones, saving you big on energy costs. You can use unheated spaces like sun porches, garages and sheds year-round with propane space and wall heaters.
Are you building a new home somewhere in our service area of Dutchess and Ulster counties? Or perhaps you are renovating your existing home. While you're deciding between tile and vinyl plank for the bathrooms, picking out paint colors and doing all the paperwork that goes with these projects, there's something else you can do that will enhance the quality of life in your home both indoors and out.

Kimlin Energy gave my housemates and I as well as my former landlord a hard time understanding the bills that they’ve charged us. I called them along with my housemate whose the account holder to figure out the confusion as money was taken out of his account ($361.21) by Kimlin and the company said they never received a payment from him but we have bank statements showing so. And as we’re still trying to clarify what needs to be paid and what has already been paid, Denise threatened to take us to small court saying that the bill needs to be paid and obviously we’re trying to pay what hasn’t

I’ve been a small use customer for thirty years of Kimlin Energy. They decided to access a 65 dollar yearly charge to use their service due to low amount of fuel purchased that we are already being charge additional for. I go to use my stove this morning to find I’m out of gas. I check the tank to find a device on the tank locking me out. I call and I spoke with Tara who informs me I have a zero balance. I can’t believe that this is the way the treat a long time customer. I’ll find someone else. Shame on you kimlin.

I had a really easy time coordinating the work with Benjamin.
4 of the nicest guys came to bury a 500 gallon propane tank, dig a trench to the house, and hook up the propane inside. They were courteous, funny, helpful and professional. One guy, (I wish I could remember all of their names) even called his mom to ask about how to revitalize some plants that needed to be dug up to get the line in!
The backhoe operator landscaped the rocks around the tank cap.
Solid work, excellent people.

It's only for a lack of time during my workday that I'm not writing more extensively about how cordial, professional, and skillful I found the people at Kimlin. From the person I spoke with who administered the new account and scheduled the appointment, to the Tony, the guy that installed a new propane tank and was able to troubleshoot some problems that are beyond my ability to explain here. It was an excellent experience.

I'm a 20+ year customer and have only positive things to say about Kimlin Energy--the staff and service are phenomenal. From new installations to billing questions/issues, I have received first-class treatment from a highly professional and responsive staff. The drivers are skilled and make it even under very bad weather/road conditions and the service personnel are knowledgeable and quick to offer solutions. Most recently, Margaret and Melinda went above and beyond in explaining a billing issue and resolving the matter to my complete satisfaction.

Office staff (Tara) in Red Hook was GREAT.... but that's it. Had appointment this morning for a Propane Tank placement between 9-10am. Come 12 noon, still no one here. Tried calling local office, no answer, called main number and after listening to a large amount of good music, Lori calls dispatch and tells me they are SO sorry, they got called to an emergency this morning. You think I would I received a phone call- no! Sad that now I might have to continue my search for a Propane and Oil Company.

We have a small (24 gallon) tank that we use only for our stove. Because we use propane very slowly, it seems that Kimlin thinks it's OK to charge us a $73 "Minimum Usage Fee." We didn't order propane within the time they think we should have, so they charged us $73. For NOTHING. They charge you for ordering propane, and they charge you for NOT ordering propane. And then, on top of that, I called them this past Monday (04.16.18) to order propane (we ran out on Sunday - there's no gauge on the tank, so you don't know you're out until you're out) and was told
