Here's how I would do it:


H,

I just spoke with the Heating Co. about the pre-buy program, and I'd like your help with it.

Over the past few heating seasons we've used just over 600 gallons of propane. The pre-buy price is $1.699 per gallon right now. If I were able to buy 600 gallons right now the heating season would be just over $1,000. I have $600 of that saved. I would like you to help with with the other $400

I would have peace of mind with not expecting huge heating bills over the winter, and I could pay you back over time.

The gentleman from Heating Co. is sending me a contract so please think it over and let me know.
-------------------------------

I took some of the emotion out and made it sound a little more "act as if".

BTW, I think you should avoid using the words "count on you". These could well be annoying because it will set in his mind that if he says no, he's someone who can't be counted on. It may feel like a set up.

Hope this helps!
