Cooking appliances are not controlled under the Building Regulations, however, we expect that many developers will choose not to install new gas connections in developments adopting the Future Homes Standard. There are a range of alternatives, including modern electric and induction hobs, which are cleaner and safer to use than gas, cheaper to install and maintain, and better for the environment.</p><p>The Future Homes Standard is about building homes that are affordable to buy, affordable to run, and help to meet our climate change commitments. We will set out further details as part of our 2019 consultation on the energy efficiency requirements of the Building Regulations.</p> answering member printed Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth grouped question UIN HL15084 question first answered 15/04/2019 15:49:35 answering member 4282 label Biography information for Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth
