Effective July 19, 2021, the DOE aims to reduce energy usage with new pool pump regulatory standards.
The Department of Energy has passed a new set of minimum performance standards for home and business in the United States. This new law is likely to eliminate special-rate and max-rate/full-rate motor horsepower ratings.
This information can sound overwhelming at first, but we've pulled a simplified list from our distributor's resource center to help make these updates less overwhelming.
Here's what you need to know:
-
MAJOR BENEFITS FOR CUSTOMERS!
-
New labeling requirements make it easy for consumers to compare the efficiency of pumps
-
Higher efficiency standards help consumers save energy and money $$$
-
DEALER INVENTORY NOT AFFECTED
-
Dealers can sell and install any pump models until inventory runs out
-
After July 19, 2021, manufacturers are responsible for producing pumps that comply with new regulations
-
A NEW WAY TO MEASURE ENERGY EFFICIENCY
-
Weighted energy factor (WEF) is the new standard for evaluating pump efficiency
-
The higher the WEF rating, the more efficient the pump
