Chattanooga House Question--Gas or Electric?
Silly question, but in your experience are most houses furnished with gas or electric for cooking? I really miss the gas stoves in CA, but here in S. FL there is mostly electric.....

I don't know for sure, but I think probably most houses have electric cooking. Electric is much cheaper than gas in Tennessee. All the houses we looked at when house hunting had electric. We, unfortunately, have gas heat. Our heating bills were just too high this winter - close to what we had in Michigan.

Type of heating system predominate in central and east Tennessee
From the threads that I have read on this forum, it appears that natural gas central heating systems are not predominate in central and east Tennessee. In every home I've ever lived in, we have had a gas central heating system, so I'm not familiar with any other type of system. Are electric powered heating systems predominate in central and east Tennessee?
 Are they similar in function and design to a gas powered central heating system? Is an electric powered heating system less costly to operate?

Mostly elec,- gas back-up
B.B. I would say electric and TVA supply is reasonable. Other people in our Develolpment have added a Gas Tank bottle for stove or even the option for a small bedroom fireplace. A extra Back-Up is not a bad idea for winter emergency, not that we get ice storms.
Our neighbor was a cook and likes big gas stove, but my wife not able to smell if any LEAK and afraid of accident. We do have one empty foundation along Rt #27 where the house was Blown off the basement, also one recently in Melbourne, Fla. Wife wanted the newer glass top stove and heats very fast and looks modern.

Thank you all for your responses! Very helpful. Here in FL, the neighbor with the gas stove was the most popular person on the block when the power went out during Hurricane Wilma in October 2005
I know it is a different world!Have a great day everyone!
