A gas appliance is any appliance that uses natural gas, propane, or hydrogen as its power source rather than electricity. They are commonly used for space heating, water heating, and cooking.

Many cooking appliances rely on gas as a power source, including gas ovens and gas stoves. Gas ovens were patented by British inventor James Sharp in 1836, and had become commonplace by the 1920s.[1]
