There is a reason why professional chefs choose to cool on gas ranges. Cooking on a gas stove proves many benefits. Gas ranges provide instant gas flames and greater temperature control than electric ranges. They also provide more even heat distribution and the burners cool much more quickly when turned off. Propane ovens retain moisture in foods more consistently than their electric counterparts.
Propane dyers are faster than their electric counterparts. They are less expensive and more economical to run. Propane dryers use the same operation and ventilation requirements, making them easy to install. They also produce a moist heat that is gentler on fabrics and helps keep your clothes in good condition, longer. Another benefit is that they reduce wrinkles and static cling due to the moist heat.
