Title: Test Procedure for Commercial Water Heating Equipment  
Abstract:

EPCA, as amended by EISA 2007 and AEMTCA, requires the Secretary to update test procedures for commercial water heating equipment to be consistent with the amended industry test procedure so as to reflect any technological advances in this equipment and accurately represent the energy consumption of this equipment.  The statute also requires DOE to consider any necessary amendments to its test procedures at least once every seven years. This rulemaking will satisfy both statutory provisions.
