I guess having NG in your home may be a good idea but don't do it to save money because gas keeps getting more expensive and gas appliances are really are not more efficient than electric appliances. If you like to cook with gas or need a generator to support medical equipment or don't want to play around with propane for the BBQ then gas may be for you. But gas tank hot water heater or a gas on-demand water heater will cost you more in the long run. The dryer, gas may be a little more efficient. But just know there will be an pretty significant up front cost to bring the gas throughout your home. Always insist on black pipe because any flex pipe is suseptible to lightning and fires.
It's also interesting to know that lots of people here in the Villages have removed the gas from their home for a variety of reasons including safety.
