To convert from a gas stove to an electric one means the installation of a special 220 Service. And so, there is “more” electricity going to the house.

And where does that electricity come from?

BTW, I live in a trailer with a propane stove. I only need a tank-full of gas delivered every couple of years.

My electric bill is so low, the company had to impose a “minimum”, as did the propane company.

They can have my propane stove when they pry it from my cold dead hands.

Yep, isn’t “camping” great? We are the same way, Propane serves us very well. It is amazing how much cooking you can do on a propane stove compared to an electric per dollar. Propane stoves even use half as much gas flow as a natural gas stove for the same BTU output. We can put a five gallon can on our coach and if we just use the cook stove we can make it almost three months. That is a cost of only about $4 a month. But in turn, an electric water heater is cheaper to run than a propane hot water heater.
