It's usually more expensive to burn propane than natural gas.
Higher price per unit, but propane burns 2-2.5x more efficiently. So what might be more beneficial to one person or another most likely depends on other factors, such as region and availability.
Almost nobody ends up using propane when they've got piped gas available. Which says that it's not a great choice.
Or it just confirms developers being in cahoots, and consumers being unaware that they have choices, even when it doesn't seem like it. Hopefully you're not interpreting this as me trying to argue with you, as my intention is more of a "hey, by the way here's something" rather than an attempt to convince anyone of anything.
in the case of apartments the consumers don't have a choice, which is why new gas line bans are so important
Or just live somewhere else and don’t ruin shit for the rest of us?
