Title: ●Test Procedure for Residential Water Heaters  
Abstract:

The American Energy Manufacturing Technical Corrections Act (AEMTCA), Public Law 112-210 amended, the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA), Public Law 94-163, to require that along with developing a uniform efficiency descriptor for covered water heaters, DOE must also develop a mathematical conversion factor to translate the results for water heaters previously tested using the efficiency metric under the existing test procedure to the new uniform descriptor.  (42 U.S.C. 6295(e)(5)(E)).  DOE is conducting this rulemaking to develop the mathematical conversion factor as required by EPCA, as amended.
