Eliminating gas appliances by 2022 seems a bit on the extreme side when simply requiring vented range hoods would solve the issue. Requiring vented range hoods would be a good idea, regardless of the heat source. Smoke, from burning gas or burning chicken, generally isn't good.



IME, even with a hood, most people don't turn them on unless there are off-putting smells, which usually don't happen unless you're burning food. Sad thing is that most are fairly noisy.

I don't have a gas stove, but my AQ sensor reports high VOC while/after cooking and I'm reluctant to turn on the stove hood as it's so noisy.
