The conversions will be performed at select dealers who have been trained by Metro Lawn and will carry full warranty and be eligible for the $1000 PERC Rebate.

Jim Coker, Director of Metro Lawn who has been instrumental in the propane movement of mowers said, “This program will insure the customer is fully supported. It starts with support and warranty from the manufacturer, proper training and support from the Dealer, and having the proper infrastructure and support from the number one propane gas company in America.”
