Protecting Consumer Choice and Performance of Natural Gas Appliances.
This law establishes new requirements for federal agencies when setting energy efficiency standards for natural gas appliances like furnaces, water heaters, and stoves. It ensures that new regulations cannot force a significant shift from gas to electric appliances, protecting consumer choice and the functionality of gas stoves. It also mandates clearer energy usage information on product labels.
Key points
New energy efficiency rules for gas appliances must not cause a major shift toward electric alternatives in homes or commercial buildings.
Appliance labels must prominently display a "full fuel cycle analysis" of energy use, providing consumers with comprehensive efficiency data.
Regulations for gas kitchen appliances (stoves, ovens) cannot limit essential features like quick-to-boil times or burner design.
Small appliance manufacturers are exempt from complying with these new energy efficiency standards.
