gas heat
Piped fuel heating
Gas heat is a heating system that burns natural gas or propane to warm a building, as opposed to electric heat, oil heat, or wood-burning systems.
The term often appears in real estate listings and utility discussions: The apartment has gas heat and central air.
Gas heat typically costs less to operate than electric in colder climates.
