Gas vs Electric: natural gas saves energy in home uses
A Houston Natural campaign argues gas energy saves more energy than electric for major home jobs. It claims natural gas can heat nearly two gallons of water with the same gas as one gallon electrically and can heat about 24 homes with the energy to heat one home electrically.
