Bill > HB1161

This bill requires retailers in Colorado to label new gas-fueled stoves with a yellow adhesive label that informs potential consumers about air quality implications of indoor gas stoves. The label must include a website link or QR code directing consumers to a dedicated webpage created by the Department of Public Health and Environment, which will provide evidence-based information about the health impacts of gas stoves. For in-store sales, retailers must place the label in a prominent, easily readable position on the display model, and for online sales, they must post the label content prominently on their website. A gas-fueled stove is defined as a household stove, range, or cooktop that directly combusts gaseous or liquid fuel and is used for indoor food preparation, including surface cooking, oven cooking, or broiling. Retailers who fail to comply with these labeling requirements will be considered to have committed a deceptive trade practice under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act, which could result in potential penalties. The bill is set to take effect after the standard legislative review period, with potential voter approval required if a referendum petition is filed.
