Same. And it would most likely take months to upgrade the electric service given PG&E's incredibly slow timetables + permitting, because the electric cables are undergrounded on my street and they'd need to dig trenches. Enforcing electric water heaters and furnaces for new construction makes sense, but forcing everyone to retrofit in six years or else face massive costs + potentially months without heat or hot water is insane. And what would you do even if your furnace broke within the six-year timeframe? Buy an entirely new gas furnace that will be illegal to repair within a few years? No, you'd still effectively be forced into the months-long, double-digit thousands of dollars expense to upgrade electrical service with the monopoly that controls electric service in CA.
