    Electric stoves are more dangerous and cause fires, injuries and deaths at a much higher rate.

    I do build a lot of stuff, I can't think of any vent less gas stoves that would pass codes

    Speaking of crusade du jour, weren’t you just aping recent right wing and anti vaxx talking points about the (unproven) rise of adults falling over and dying of cardiac issues?

    You’re exactly the type of rube Manchin was hoping to real in with this tweet and looks like it worked.

    Is this true? I have a good friend that owns a big chimney sweep business and he puts those in all the time (more now than ever). I am going to have to ask him about this.

    I never worked in a single commercial kitchen either with a gas grill or fryer that didn’t have a hood system. And when it was down we weren’t cooking.

    It also didn’t take long to be overwhelmed with smoke when it went out mid dinner rush.

    Obviously huge differences between home and commercial kitchens, but the idea is the same.

    On a side note, if you ever pull into a restaurant parking lot and can smell the grease or see it coming out of the vent, get back in your car and go somewhere else. They aren’t clean.

    If you have a chimney, you are probably good. It is an issue in Latin America, Africa, and se Asia with standing wood stoves in the home.

    I would guess it’s more due to the improper use of the stove that it is the actual stove itself.

    Please explain why this would make someone a rube.

    Yeah id like to know if there are more young adults and athletes keeping over and reasons why, as it seems to be increasing, and I’ve been to more funerals for 40 years olds who “didn’t wake up” the last 2 years than combined the last decade.
    I doubt you would understand with a very limited friend base.

    It is the stove itself, actually, and replacing them with better engineered ones is something many charities are doing to help with the problem. The stoves need to be more hear efficient to fully combust the wood and then have proper exhaust as well.

    I could see that. I know people that use them all the time and don't get them cleaned are basically just asking for their home to burn down.

    So a cursory look on the gas stove thing is pointing me to a study that found that 13% of child asthma cases in America are likely due to gas stoves. Haven't read the paper yet.

    Interesting, but makes sense to me.

    Makes sense. He has to be certified in so much stuff and all of his guys as well so I would think they are putting stoves in that are safe to use.

    Welp, your anecdotal evidence of some friends completely clears this one up. Glad we got that settled.

    I’m not committed to any theory about the cause but these stories of young athletes dying do seem to be dime a dozen right now.

    This seems a really silly thing to release and talk about right now. While I am sure the statistics show it to be true, it is most likely trying to mop up the ocean. There are far more important things to burn energy on, pardon the pun.

    you watch a lot of soccer. Seems like there are more issues there as well. Kid on Air Force football team died suddenly yesterday, which seems more common.
    I have no idea why someone wouldn’t want to know why, yet also dismiss any possibility.
