Changes to Water Heater Definitions and Energy Efficiency Standards
This act modifies the definitions of water heaters used in homes and businesses, potentially affecting the availability and types of devices on the market. It also introduces new rules for monitoring and labeling certain water heaters, ensuring citizens know if a model is for residential or commercial use.
Key points
New, more detailed definitions for water heaters, including heat pump and solar-assisted types, which may influence the devices available to consumers.
Introduction of monitoring for sales of water heaters exclusively for commercial applications; if their sales significantly increase, they may become subject to residential energy efficiency standards.
Mandatory labels for commercial water heaters, clearly stating they are not certified as residential units, helping consumers avoid purchasing errors.
Prohibition of creating separate product classes for heat pump water heaters and other electric storage water heaters, aiming to standardize requirements.
