News Release – March, 2023
You may have read or heard in the news, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District has approved new rules that would phase out the sales of new natural gas furnaces and water heaters. This change would apply only to new water heaters and furnaces and does not mandate the immediate replacement of existing appliances and does not apply to cooking appliances, such as gas stoves.
PLEASE NOTE: The new rules DO NOT apply to any gas appliances run by propane. We wanted to clarify these changes as do not apply to any households that use propane.
For more information on the upcoming changes, please contact our office 707-285-3525 or fuel@mcphails.com. Additional information can be found on the Bay Area Air Quality Management District website. See link: https://www.baaqmd.gov/rules-and-compliance/rule-development/building-appliances
