Abstract

DOE is proposing to rescind the amended energy conservation standards for all dehumidifiers (excluding whole-home dehumidifiers) hereinafter ("dehumidifiers" or "non-whole-home dehumidifiers"), which constitute a distinct class of dehumidifier for which energy conservation standards are not statutorily prescribed. This will return the energy conservation standards for dehumidifiers manufactured on or after October 1, 2012, to 1.35 liters/kWh for dehumidifiers with a capacity of up to 35.00 pints/day; 1.50 liters/kWh for dehumidifiers with a capacity of 35.01-45.00 pints/day; 1.60 liters/kWh for dehumidifiers with a capacity of 45.01-54.00 pints/day; 1.70 liters/kWh for dehumidifiers with a capacity of 54.01-75.00 pints/day; and 2.5 liters/kWh for dehumidifiers with a capacity of greater than 75.00 pints/day.
