Natural GAS Act of 2025

Key Points

• This bill changes how the government makes rules for home appliances like water heaters, furnaces, and stoves. It requires officials to prove that new energy standards will not force families or businesses to switch from gas to electric models when they buy new appliances.
• The Energy Department would have to use a more detailed way to measure energy use. This method looks at the total energy used from the time fuel is taken out of the ground until it is used in your house. This data must be printed on the bright yellow energy labels you see on appliances in stores.
• The plan specifically protects features that people like about gas stoves. It says the government cannot pass rules that limit how fast water boils, how many burners a stove has, or the shape of the metal grates. This is meant to make sure energy rules do not change how your stove works.
• Small companies that make appliances would not have to follow these new rules. This is intended to help smaller businesses stay in business by saving them from the high costs of meeting new federal requirements that larger companies can afford more easily.
