Rule Concerning Disclosures Regarding Energy Consumption and Water Use of Certain Home Appliances and Other Products Required Under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (“Appliance Labeling Rule”)
The Federal Trade Commission ("Commission") announces that the current ranges of comparability for central air conditioners, and heat pumps will remain in effect until further notice. Finally, the Commission amends the portions of Appendices H (Cooling Performance and Cost for Central Air Conditioners) and I (Hearing Performance and Cost for Central Air Conditioners) to reflect the current (2002) Representative Average Unit Cost of Electricity that was published on April 24, 2002 (67 FR 20104), by the Department of Energy ("DOE"), and on June 7, 2002 (67 FR 39269) by the Commission.
