The Benefits of a Gas vs. an Electric Stove

Even if your home already has a natural gas connection, perhaps you’re not using it to its full advantage. Or, if a city gas line is available but not connected to your house, you’re missing out even more.

Let’s say, for example, you’ve been thinking about switching from an electric to gas stove.  You have friends who rave about them, but you haven’t had time to explore the benefits for yourself.  Take it from Messmer Mechanical – you’ll thoroughly enjoy cooking with gas, and for a bunch of good reasons:

• Energy savings
• Better tasting food: just ask the great chefs and cooks of the world
• Greater temperature control
• Better baking results
• Faster response time to temperature changes
• Continues to operate even when you lose power

And let’s not forget – gas is more environmentally friendly than electricity.
