The South Coast Air Quality Management District has proposed amendments to rules 1111 and 1121, which aim to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions from residential and commercial heating systems by phasing in zero-NOx space and water heating units. The proposed rules would impose significant costs on homeowners, landlords, and renters, with estimated annual costs of $306 million and total costs of $8.9 billion over the 25-year lifecycle of these appliances.
