Biden admin crackdown on water heaters would go into effect in 2029 as it targets more home appliances

A regulatory proposal for water heaters would not take effect until 2029, the Biden administration said Monday.

President Biden and Jennifer Granholm, his secretary of energy, have been pushing for rules changes that would significantly boost energy standards for gas stoves that some Republicans say shows they want to ban these appliances.

In addition to water heaters, in recent months, the DOE has proposed new standards for a variety of home appliances, including gas stoves, clothes washers, refrigerators and air conditioners.
