Your stove might become illegal.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is considering creating regulations, and even a ban, on natural gas stoves over concerns that research links harmful air pollutants with such stoves.
Gas stoves have been linked to respiratory issues such as asthma, commission member Richard Trumka Jr. says.
The agency is still gathering information, but Trumka said a ban is possible because, as he told Bloomberg: “Products that can’t be made safe can be banned.”
About 40% of Americans, including operators of many restaurants, use gas stoves.
