  • 815 ILCS 505/2MMMM

    Sec. 2MMMM. Gas appliance labeling. (a) No person shall sell, attempt to sell, or offer to sell to a consumer in this State a non-externally vented natural gas appliance that is manufactured on or after January 1, 2027 unless a label on the gas appliance bears the message: WARNING: Gas appliances can release nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide inside homes at levels exceeding the Environmental Protection Agency's standards for outdoor air quality. The presence of these pollutants may exacerbate pre-existing respiratory illnesses or lead to the development of asthma, especially in children. Gas appliances should never be used without a ducted vent hood to reduce exposure to these emissions. (b) The label required under subsection (a) shall be attached to the gas appliance in a conspicuous location. The label must be in a type size no smaller than the largest type size used for other consumer information on the product. (c) The Attorney General may adopt rules setting forth additional requirements for the placement and formatting of the label required under subsection (a). (d) A violation of this Section constitutes an unlawful practice within the meaning of this Act.
