My gas lasted 6 months when I learned this trick that a gas fitter showed me.

Do you feel that bottled or natural gas is lasting less and less time?

Many people experience the same problem, but what few realize is that the issue isn’t always with the supplier or how the appliance is used, but rather with the burners themselves.
A gas technician explained to me that when the burners are dirty or clogged, gas consumption skyrockets without you even noticing.

I tried it and was surprised: after applying this method, the gas lasted me more than twice as long.

1. What happens when the stovetop is dirty
When we cook, it is normal for food scraps, grease, oil or even sweet liquids to fall onto the stovetop and burn with the heat.

That dirt clogs the gas outlets and alters the flame.

If instead of blue you see it more orange or yellow, it means that the combustion is not efficient and you are wasting gas.

That weak flame doesn’t cook well, it takes longer, and it makes the gas run out faster.
