Gas Stove, Wood Stove & Fireplace Rule Watch

Why this is recommended

A $2,000 induction rebate, a wood stove changeout that pays $3,000, a no-burn day fine, or a code that ends gas hookups in a permit pulled next month each turn a decision into a deadline. The Tab reads the air district so the homeowner does not have to.

What the Tab covers

Who it is for

The 40 million homes cooking on gas, the 12 million heating with wood and everyone remodeling a kitchen in a city with a code change.

When it runs

Building codes and air district rules pass on weekday evenings and burn bans are declared before cold weekends

Scope

Gas appliance and hookup restrictions in new construction, remodels and rentals by city and state and the court rulings on them; EPA and air district wood stove, fireplace and outdoor burning rules and no-burn day declarations; wood stove changeout rebates and the federal biomass credit; gas stove, range, fireplace and space heater recalls and CPSC or peer-reviewed safety findings; natural gas and propane price and rule changes; induction and electric range rebates; venting, carbon monoxide and pilot light rules

Suggested task

The objective your Tab starts with. You can edit every line of it once the Tab is yours.

Gas appliance restrictions in new construction and remodels by city and state, wood stove and fireplace emission rules and no-burn days by air district, wood stove changeout rebates and tax credits, gas stove and range recalls and safety findings, gas line and propane price and rule changes, electric range and induction rebates and pilot light and venting rules, with the city, district or product first.

Track home combustion appliance rules in the United States. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: gas appliance and hookup restrictions for new construction, remodels or rentals passed, taking effect or struck down by any city or state; EPA and air district wood stove, fireplace and outdoor burning rules and no-burn day declarations for metros over 500,000 people; wood stove changeout rebate programs and federal biomass stove credit changes; gas stove, range, fireplace, chimney and space heater recalls and CPSC or peer-reviewed safety findings; natural gas and propane residential price and rule changes; induction and electric range rebates from utilities and states; and venting, carbon monoxide and pilot light rule changes. Prefer city councils, state legislatures, EPA, air districts, CPSC, utilities and established home and energy reporting; ignore political commentary and appliance marketing. Put the city, district, program or product first in the title with the date or amount. Use high severity for a rule taking effect within 90 days in a metro over one million people, a recall with fire or carbon monoxide risk, or a rebate of $1,000 or more. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, what to do, the deadline, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
