Congratulations! You’ve done the research about powering your home with natural gas and learned that:

• Natural gas is the most economical energy source,
• Natural gas can be up to 40% less expensive than electricity,
• Natural gas is the cleanest-burning fossil fuel, and
• 90% of the natural gas used in the United States is produced domestically.

You have decided you want to convert your appliances to gas because you also learned that they will run more efficiently and have a longer life expectancy than their electric counterparts. In addition, they require relatively little maintenance. The appliances that can be powered by gas include:

• Gas dryers: Drying time is reduced dramatically when you use a gas dryer; this makes them more energy efficient than electric dryers. 
• Gas ranges: The advantage of gas is that it heats quickly and allows you to immediately control the temperature. Gas ranges are preferred by chefs worldwide. 
• Gas fireplaces: You get the warmth and atmosphere of a traditional wood burning fireplace; you don’t have the hassle of starting the fire and you don’t have to clean up messy ashes.
• Gas barbeques: You won’t have to worry about running out of propane in the middle of cooking a steak.
• Gas water heaters: Not only will you experience cost savings in energy bills, you will enjoy an unlimited supply of clean, fresh, hot water. 

In addition, since gas is delivered to your home underground, the flow is not interrupted during a severe storm. Appliances operating on gas can continue to do so even if there is a power outage.
