For a business centered on selling food, the whole production chain may have to be studied to determine what could be done quicker or with less heating. Sometimes, there may not be easy solutions that would not compromise quality, variation or appeal.

When gas appliances operation is considered, there are other aspects that affect a building. Since cooking devices are frequently open-flame designs or ones that have little insulation, they are generally contributing significantly to space heating on the area around them. This is an unavoidable aspect even when special fume extractors are being used as most heat simply radiates around the appliance.

An gas powered oven is, in most cases, the device that compromises the most on efficiency. The requirement of ensuring combustion air and burned gas byproducts exhaust wastes a lot of energy. Cold air has to constantly enter the oven and be heated to a certain temperature. All the effort of heating air is wasted when exhaust leaves the oven.

An airtight or controlled airflow system would be limited in an electrical appliance and inside air circulation could be more easily ensured to reach an optimal uniformity.
