TITLE: Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Consumer Pool HeatersAGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of EnergyACTION: Final ruleSUMMARY: The Energy Policy and Conservation Actas amended ("EPCA"), prescribes energy conservation standards for various consumer products and certain commercial and industrial equipment, including consumer pool heaters. EPCA also requires the U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE" or "the Department") to periodically determine whether more- stringent, standards would be technologically feasible and economically justified, and would result in significant energy savings. In this final rule, DOE is adopting new and amended energy conservation standards for consumer pool heaters. It has determined that the new and amended energy conservation standards for these products would result in significant conservation of energy, and are technologically feasible and economically justified.DATES: The effective date of this rule is 31 July 2023. Compliance with the new and amended standards established for consumer pool heaters in this final rule is required on and after 30 May 2028.This final rule and the notice of proposed rulemaking; announcement of public meeting notified as G/TBT/N/USA/1854 are identified by Docket Number EERE-2021-BT-STD-0020.
