Will those in the southern states cope? Could you switch?

    Usually these sorts of things have a carrot and stick approach.

    The carrot is usually a trade-up program offering rebates on a new/replacement model.

    The stick is gas prices - you just turn the dial up until its too hot to bear (pun intended).

      Neither the carrot or the stick effects my landlord in this case. 🤷‍♂️

        Eventually it will, when a renter won’t rent a property if it has gas hot water because its $1000/month to turn it on.

        I agree they are uniquely insulated from the effects though, especially in this entirely broken rental market.
