That is true of gas stoves, but gas furnaces don't exhaust into the house.


Lower efficiency gas furnaces don’t have a completely sealed exhaust and rely on a draft for pollutant evacuation. This usually works good enough when properly installed and maintained but can be a source of indoor air pollution. Although typically minimal.

And there are also decorative and/or supplemental gas heating devices which exhaust into the home.


But gas turbines do vent to their neighbors’ air, which is the main point here.
