The Energy Department is poised to finalize modest efficiency standards for stoves and ovens, potentially saving consumers money on energy bills
The Energy Department is poised to finalize modest efficiency standards for stoves and ovens, potentially saving consumers money on energy bills
The topic of gas stoves ignited a heated debate last year when a Biden appointee suggested they could be banned because they posed a risk to human health.
But a ban isn’t in the works — and this week the administration will finalize a scaled-back plan to make new stoves less energy-intensive.

We're going to get low-flow burners, aren't we?
So what you're saying is that your big turd needs a big flush... Fueled by a big stove?
God help us
People complaining about low-flow toilets have never used a modern low-flow toilet. Ours has two flush buttons, a big one and a small one. I'm sure you can guess which situation you use each one for. It works quite well. In fact, our old toilet, which was not low flow, used to clog all the time. I think I've had to unclog this one once and we've had it 4 or 5 years now.
It’s really down to what timeframe you’re looking at. I do want to get a new toilet exactly because my “low flow” toilet from 25+ years ago doesn’t flush as well as a modern one . Meanwhile the real water hogs from 50+ years ago could flush a sailboat.
I think water saving toilets went in generations like: 5+ gal—>3.5 gal—>1.6 gal—>1.2 gal
I’m at the 1.6 gallon flush generation, but modern ones about 1.2 gallon or better were where the technology actually improved
No... Or, really I have no idea what you're saying. I was just making a joke about low-flow shower heads.
