Final rule.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) establishes new test procedures for residential clothes washers under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act. The new test procedures include provisions for measuring standby mode and off mode energy consumption, and update the provisions for measuring active mode energy and water consumption. This final rule also amends the certification, compliance, and enforcement requirements for residential clothes washers, amends provisions for calculating the estimated annual operating cost for clothes washers, eliminates an obsolete clothes washer test procedure, and amends certain provisions in the currently applicable test procedure.
This final rule is effective April 6, 2012. Manufacturers will be required to certify compliance using the appendix J2 test procedure beginning on the compliance date of any final rule establishing amended energy conservation standards that address standby and off mode power for residential clothes washers. Before that time, manufacturers may continue to certify compliance using the test procedure at appendix J1.
