Homes with gas stoves have higher levels of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and other pollutants.
• Exposure to NO2 from gas stoves may be linked to 200,000 childhood asthma cases and 19,000 adult deaths per year in the US.
• The health costs associated with these illnesses are estimated at $1 billion annually.
• Gas stoves contribute significantly to NO2 levels even though vehicles are the main source overall.
