We have a project that uses water cooled ice machine, but the coolant for the system is provided through a refrigerant through a closed loop system. The production for the ice maker also meets the production standards specified by Energy Star. Should this satisfy the prerequisite?

Hi Brendan,
I believe from your description that the closed loop system meets the requirements; depending on where your project is located, the Energy Star certification would be required if in the US, but could be equivalent to the standards outside the US if a certified product wasn't available.
Since this question was posted quite a while ago, please let us know if your project completed the review and what the outcome was.
