Earlier this month it was reported that New York Gov. Kathy Hochul supports an eventual ban on gas furnaces and stoves:
Gov. Kathy Hochul is endorsing a measure to phase out the fuels that warm more than 80 percent of homes in New York.
In her State of the State address Tuesday, Hochul backed a ban on the sale of fossil fuel based heating equipment beginning in 2030 for single-family homes and smaller buildings and 2035 for larger and commercial buildings.
That would mean if a gas furnace failed or needed a replacement after that date, it would have to be with an electric or other non-combustion system. The proposal does not include gas stoves, according to the governor’s office.
