Phill

FuelMaker

The Phill VRA is BRC FuelMaker's most heavily advertised product and was developed in partnership with Honda for its Civic GX, although it will fuel any NGV. Phill is a home, mainly indoor, natural gas fueling device. It mounts on the wall of your garage and slowly compresses natural gas to fill your vehicle. Phill is certified as a home appliance and is as safe as any other natural gas appliance that you may have in your home. A new Phill system costs approximately $4,500. Phill's compressor is good for 6,000 hours of service (approximatley 3,000 GGE's of CNG), then must be refurbished at the FuelMaker headquarters for approximatley $2,000. Federal (and possibly state/local) incentives exist for the purchase and installation of a new Phill system.

From my research, Phill is a good device but can take up to 16 hours to fill a Civic GX's 8 gallon tank. I recommend you compare Phill with one of FuelMaker's single compression module units when contemplating a private/home refueling appliance.
