Do you feel like your gas cylinder or gas stove is emptying much faster than usual? Yet, you cook as always... But then, where does all this gas go? A gas installer revealed to me a simple but unrecognized secret: clogged burners significantly reduce combustion efficiency. Result? Your gas is burning badly, and you consume more than you need to. Fortunately, a simple trick helps to make it easier and to extend the lifespan of your gas. Do you want to make effortless savings? Follow the guide.

How do you extend the life of your gas?

First step: to detect the problem

Observe the flame of your cooker:

  • Blue and intense? It's all right.
  • Orange or yellowish? Bad news: your burners are probably clogged.

An orange flame means that the gas does not burn properly, resulting in overconsumption.

  • 2 tablespoons of salt
