Dangerously misleading headline. Democratic cities aren’t just banning gas stoves, they’re banning all use of Natural Gas in new construction homes and businesses, which includes banning natural gas water heaters and furnaces.
The body of the story correctly explains this, but the headline implies that only gas stoves are being banned.
In big manufacturing and storage warehouses they use natural gas heaters to keep the fire sprinkler systems from freezing. It keeps the ceiling area warm and the pipes above freezing. Do away with natural gas and you go to electric to keep the fire sprinklers from freezing. This will raise the cost/expenses of nearly every business!
