Our previous home was gas cooking. We had a natural gas line. A colder climate than Florida and we had converted from oil heat to gas heat.

Here we do not have a gas line. I am aware of two neighbors with buried LP gas tanks.

I do fine that electric cooking is more subject to burning. Our system at all settings it does not lower the heat just the time that it is on. Low heat is on then off, then on again. Solution is
heavy quality pans. Also, you can buy a pad kind of thing to put your pots on top of. I made my own by cutting the bottom off an old copper fry pan. It needs to fit the pot you are using.
????? You might need several different sizes. You want thick copper so will likely need to buy an antique fry pan. It works just fine.
