​​Why More Adelaide Homes Are Ditching Gas

 

​

Gas Leaks Are a Real Risk

Old ovens and cooktops can leak over time. Even a small leak can be dangerous — especially in older homes. Switching to electric removes that risk completely.

​

Stop Paying Gas Supply Fees

Even if you barely use gas, you’re probably paying around $80–$100 per quarter just to keep it connected. That’s up to $350 a year in supply charges alone — gone the moment you disconnect.

​

Got Solar? Make It Work for You

Electric cooking pairs perfectly with solar panels. Instead of paying for gas, cook using your own free, clean energy. Induction is especially efficient, fast, and responsive — a favourite among chefs.

​

Possible Government Rebates

Some councils and state initiatives offer incentives for removing gas and going all-electric. We’ll let you know if your area qualifies and help guide you through the rebate process.

Induction vs Gas Cooktops – What’s Better?

​

Speed & Efficiency

• Induction: Heats pots and pans directly using electromagnetic energy, which means water boils faster and food cooks quicker.

• Gas: Heats the area around the pan, wasting more energy and taking longer to cook.

 

Result: Induction is usually around 2x faster than gas.

​

Energy Efficiency

• Induction: Around 85–90% of energy goes into cooking.

• Gas: Only about 40–50% is used — the rest is lost as heat around the burner.

Result: Induction is more efficient and cheaper to run, especially with solar.

​

Safety

• Induction: No open flames. The cooktop surface stays cool (only the pot heats up). Automatically shuts off when the pot is removed.

• Gas: Open flame, hot surfaces, and potential for gas leaks or fire.

Result: Induction is much safer, especially for families or older users.

​

Easy Cleaning

• Induction: Flat glass surface = quick wipe-down. No grates or burners to remove.

• Gas: Messy grates and burner caps trap spills, hard to clean.

Result: Induction wins for low-maintenance kitchens.
