The kitchen is the most important room when selling a home. And the stove is the heart of every kitchen. Explore the ways natural gas can enhance your kitchen.

Stoves

  • Preferred by professional chefs: Due to the added precision and advanced cooking techniques only possible with natural gas stoves, it’s no wonder they are preferred by most professional chefs
  • Precision heat control: Natural gas stoves give homeowners precise control over the heat they use to cook, making it easier to get a recipe just right.
  • Works when the power is out: Natural gas stoves work even when the power is out, giving homeowners added security
  • Advanced cooking techniques: The open flame of a natural gas stove allows for advanced techniques, like flambéing, charring and toasting that simply aren't possible with other fuel sources 
  • Costs less to cook: It costs about half as much to cook with a natural gas stove as with other fuel sources, according to research done by the American Gas Association
  • Instant heat: Natural gas stoves heat instantly and turn off just as quickly. With precision heat control only possible with natural gas, homeowners can adjust cooking temperatures in an instant to avoid messy boil overs

Bathrooms are high on the list for any homeowner, but behind the beautiful vanities and sleek showerheads is the unseen water heater that can make or break the experience.

Traditional water heaters

  • Works when the power is out: Traditional water heaters work even when the power is out, so you can still take showers and get the kids ready for bed, no matter what
  • Heats twice as fast: Natural gas tank water heaters heat water twice as fast as other models
  • Faster recovery for more hot water: Due to faster heating, you can enjoy access to more hot water, faster. This is especially important for larger families, as you won't have to compete for hot water between laundry, washing the dishes or being the last one in the shower
  • Costs less to bathe: If you're cost conscious or conscientious about the environment, know that because water heaters heat water faster, they also waste less energy and can reduce energy bills

Tankless water heaters

  • Endless hot water: For the best bathroom experience, try life with a tankless water heater. With on-demand heating, you'll never run out of hot water again
  • Next level efficiency: Tankless gas water heaters are 34% more efficient than traditional tank water heaters, reducing wasted energy and lowering a homeowner's energy bills even further
  • Pays for itself: While slightly more expensive on the front end, the savings will make up for the initial investment over time, especially for homebuyers with large families who use a lot of hot water
  • More space: Every square foot counts! Tankless water heaters are much smaller than traditional tank models and can even be installed on the outside of home. This can be especially relevant for smaller homes where space is at a premium

The laundry room may not be the most glamorous space in the home, but experienced homeowners know the value of a room that helps them get their chores done quickly and efficiently.

Dryers

  • Faster drying: It's easy to think all dryers are the same. But may love to learn that natural gas dryers can dry clothes faster than models with other fuel sources
  • Quicker chores: Since natural gas dryers can dry clothes quickly, this means those unavoidable chores are done more quickly. In fact, the average homeowner can save around 48 hours a year according to a Spire independent research study
  • Less wear and tear: Less time drying also means less wear and tear on clothes, extending the life of your favorite clothes

The goal of any living room is to bring people together in warmth and comfort so that it can be filled with priceless memories.

Natural gas furnaces

  • Warmth in any weather: Unlike a heat pump that struggles to work when temperatures fall below 40 degrees, a natural gas furnace works no matter the temperature outside
  • Warmer heat: Natural gas furnaces produce heat that's 25 degrees warmer at the vent than other sources of heat. That's quality heat you can literally feel
  • A cozy home, quicker: With heat that's 25 degrees warmer at the vent, natural gas furnaces can heat a home faster than other sources, making it easier for you to keep your living space comfortable for guests 
  • Longer lasting: Because a natural gas furnace is separate from a home's cooling system, they can last twice as long as heat pumps, making for a better investment and delaying the need for costly repairs and replacements

Gas fireplaces

  • Ambiance you'll actually use: A fireplace adds priceless ambiance and style, but only if you actually use it. Natural gas fireplaces make it so easy that you're much more likely to take advantage of their warmth and beauty
  • Instant fire: Forget about matches, starter logs and proper stacking techniques. With a gas fireplace, getting a roaring fire started is as easy as flipping a switch
  • Bye bye wood: No more chopping, storing, hauling or buying wood. With a natural gas fireplace, you'll never have to worry about wood or running out of fuel
  • No ashes, no cleanup: Say farewell to messy ashes and the need to clean up after a lovely fire. After all, fireplaces are meant to be enjoyed, not to add to your chore list
  • When it's off, it's off: When you're done enjoying your fireplace, it's off with a flip of a switch. No waiting for burning embers to die out

Making outdoor living just as inviting as the indoors is increasingly important to homeowners and homebuyers alike.

Gas grills

  • Great for entertaining: Nothing brings people together like good food. And nothing tastes quite as good as food straight off the grill. Outdoor entertaining is made better with a natural gas grill
  • No charcoal, no mess: Charcoal is a hassle. With a natural gas grill, you won't have to fuss with messy briquets, and you can grill instantly with the push of a button
  • Endless supply: A grill connected to a natural gas line means you won't have to worry about running out of fuel. No more trips to exchange propane tanks or buying heavy bags of charcoal
  • Precision control: A natural gas grill provides precise and instant control over how much heat is on the grill, making cooking the perfect meal far easier than with charcoal
  • Quick connect: One line, multiple uses. With a natural gas quick connect, homeowners can have one line that can be used interchangeably for a gas grill, fire pit or gas heaters 

Fire pit and heater

  • Outdoor living year-round: Who wants to be cooped up all winter long? Natural gas fire pits and heaters allow you to enjoy your outdoor living space all year
  • Always ready: With gas fire pits and heaters, you won't have to worry about keeping wood on hand or replacing propane tanks. With natural you, you can enjoy marshmallows over a fire pit or a cozy cuddle on the deck at a moment's notice

Natural gas lanterns

  • Light when the power's out: Adding gas lighting provides a layer of safety and security to a home as they'll continue to provide light even during power outages when the rest of the neighborhood goes dark
  • Doesn't attract bugs: A little known fact sure to interest you? Gas lighting doesn't attract insects. Gas powered lights give off an amber glow that bugs don't find attractive, leaving your home's entrance clear of annoying moths and other unwelcome guests
  • Unmatched beauty: There's just something about a flame that can't be matched with electric lights. If you're looking for that timeless, classic charm, nothing beautifies a home like natural gas lanterns 

Pool heaters 

  • Year-round enjoyment: A pool is a wonderful addition to any home, but what good is it if the water's too cold for half the year? A gas pool heater allows you to get the most out of your pool
