Biden Administration Looking Into Nationwide Gas Stove Ban

And the Biden Administration was clear in saying that they do not support a federal ban. But be outraged anyway. 

If people can be outraged about abortion being a state issue then they can be outraged about gas stoves being a state issue.

That not what the selective outrage here.

If they don't name this bill the Sylvia Plath act, there's no justice in the world.

Lol, between the high taxes and now this ban of natural gas in new buildings these politicians will be left wondering why businesses / new residents looking to build are not going to consider NY.  

We shall see how it works out for them.

I bet they are going to force builders to still install non-working gas lines to appease the plumbers unions so they don't piss off their donors like they did in Philly when they installed waterless urinals at the Comcast Center.

I wonder if people would then buy a gas stove Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio, or some other nearby state and have it installed on those fake gas lines.

Seriously?

Nobody here knows who Sylvia Plath is [was]?

Whatever the outrage is, the Biden administration is not looking into a nationwide gas stove ban.

Point out the part or parts in the proposal that bans gas stoves nationwide.

If you read the proposal, it's about regulating out the use of pilot lights.

Virtually no modern oven uses a pilot light. They're all electronically ignited. 

It would be like passing regulation in 2023 to that passenger vehicles shouldn't have carburators.

If anything this is an example of government waste in passing regulations that will have no practical effect because the market already moved past this.

Yeah, that’s pretty what I read but thought maybe I was missing something. I haven’t seen a continuous flame pilot light in a very long time.

And linear power supplies.  The DoE has even come out and stated that roughly half of the models of gas stoves would not meet the standard.

I would imagine that the new standard would only be applies to manufacturing new stoves. 
 

Switching power supplies are smaller, lighter, and more efficient, through there are disadvantages when compared to linear. I don’t those disadvantages would make a difference in powering a gas stove.

It will require redesign which will mean an increase in price for the "new" models.

Will this make gas stoves (different than ranges and ovens but I digress) "functionally unaffordable" as the Twitter troll is claiming?

A switching PSU is more complex and therefore more expensive than a linear one but there is really no need to reinvent the wheel here.

Are they coming into people's houses and taking your gas stoves? No.
