New Energy Efficiency Standards for Consumer Room Air Cleaners.

This law establishes mandatory minimum energy efficiency standards for most room air cleaners sold in the U.S. The goal is to ensure these devices use less electricity while effectively improving indoor air quality. These changes, implemented in phases starting late 2023, are designed to lower citizens' utility bills and promote better, more efficient products.
Key points
All new air cleaners must meet minimum energy saving requirements, resulting in lower electricity bills for users.
The introduction of standardized testing and labeling procedures will make it easier for consumers to compare the performance of different air cleaner models.
Stricter efficiency standards will take effect starting December 31, 2025, encouraging continuous technological improvement.
