Hi Jim,

 RH> electric) but Steve says the electric is better for my
 RH> asthma.

 JW> Natural gas is methane and clean burning; the combustion products
 JW> are carbon dioxide and water (in the form of steam). I don't think
 JW> either of those things should affect your asthma like smokers and
 JW> grills might.

I know, but can't convice Steve to rip out the electric line for the
stove and run a gas line. Shouldn't be that hard; we've got a gas water
heater and gas fireplace. We also heat with gas so I've no idea why they
put in electric for the stove when the house was built. Could be, since
the stove is in the center of the house and vented thru the attic, that
they didn't want to vent a gas stove thru the attic. The house was built
in 1992; we bought it in 2014.
