Learn about the Air District’s zero-NOx space and water heating rules.

Learn about the Air District’s external stakeholder Implementation Working Group, or IWG, for zero-NOx space and water heating rules.

The Air District will host a public learning session on Tuesday, October 22, virtually via Zoom, regarding adopted rules (“Building Appliance Rules”) impacting nitrogen oxide, or NOx, emissions from natural gas-fired water heating appliances. Members of the public are invited to attend, learn, and ask questions about these rules.

The Air District Board of Directors has adopted amendments to Regulation 9, Rules 4 and 6, to eliminate emissions of nitrogen oxides, or NOx, from residential and commercial natural gas furnaces and water heaters in the Bay Area by requiring new appliances to be zero-NOx. 

Learn about the Air District’s work to accelerate the transition to healthy, clean, and climate-friendly buildings for all.
