Yep, I’m in the US. It’s really easy to switch to induction or electric, but gas is still cheap and already installed in my house. Plus, we just spent a lot of money on a new gas range before finding out about the dangers, so it would be expensive to replace it again so soon. Trying to see if there’s anything I can do about it in the meantime.
Trust me, there’s plenty of apartments in Poland (where gas was predominant not more than 15 years ago) where there is a perfectly operational gas installation in the walls, but instead of a meter there’s just two plugs on the pipes. You still get an inspection done on it, but there’s only one point they measure and the risk of a gas leak is pretty much not existent, since those plugs are rated to hundreds times the line pressure.
I know it’s difficult to part with that money now and have nothing from it, so use the stove as you would, just keep in mind that gas is obsolete and dangerous. Setting things on fire in an enclosed space because you need heat sounds so 18th century.
