What that means for electrical work in Wells County
Only half of Wells County homes heat with natural gas, and about one in six uses propane, one of the highest shares in the area. That's a strong sign of rural homes past the gas lines, where the electrical system often includes a well pump, electric or propane heat, and power run out to barns and shops. In town, nearly four in ten homes predate 1960 and are more likely to need panel and wiring updates.
- About one in six homes heats with propane.
- Nearly four in ten homes were built before 1960.

Common questions
Does Sky High Electric serve Wells County?
Yes. Wells County, including Bluffton and Ossian, is in the service area. Call (260) 519-1188.
My shop or barn keeps tripping its breaker. Is the feed too small?
It may be. Outbuildings often start with a single small circuit and then pick up welders, compressors and heaters over time. An electrician can check the feeder, the subpanel and the grounding and size them for what you actually run.
