FAQs about EAc1.4 :

Does my piece of equipment qualify for Energy Star? Is there an Energy Star label for my piece of equipment? Where can I find out more about Energy Star and how it relates to my equipment type?

There is not an Energy Star category for a very specific type of an appliance that fits within a broader appliance category. Can I exclude my product?

Hi , We have an interior project specifying kitchen appliances like electric fryer , which are not energy star labelled so we are checking the equivalency for which we require idle rate and cooking energy efficiency for which the product manufacturer does not have this data , Is there any LEED guidance or way we can calculate idle energy as a percentage of rated power. Similarly for cooking energy efficiency . Thanks in advance, Regards, Shuchita Gupta

That would be nice but for Energy Star, equipment is tested to ASTM test methods piece by piece rather than calculated. LEED Prescriptive Measures V3 on Fisher Nickel's site. www.fishnick. com. All cooking whether it is Energy Star with a standard or another agency standard are in there, but I believe in all cases, the equipment was tested. Other cooking: 6 burner ranges: PG&E with Fisher Nickel did a study where induction (ranges) vs. gas vs. electric were measured during 'ready to cook', boil, covered/uncovered saute, etc. griddle standard used. Make up air/ventilation impact also calculated. I hope someone out there knows how to calculate what you mention for fryers & all cooking. It will be useful if accurate. Cooking equipment sits idle a lot because of the tendency to turn on everything in the morning and leave it, regardless of when it will be used.
