Room air conditioners energy efficiency regulations

This standard applies to single-phase electric room air conditioners that are not "packaged terminal air conditioners" and that do not exceed 10.55 kilowatts (36 000 Btu/h). With louvred sides, without reverse cycle:
-Less than 6 000 EER 9.7 
-6 000 to 7 999 EER 9.7 
-8 000 to 13 999 EER 9.8 
-14 000 to 19 999 EER 9.7
-20 000 and over EER 8.5 
With louvred sides, with reverse cycle:
-Less than 20 000 EER 9.0 
- 20 000 or more EER 8.5
Without louvred sides, without reverse cycle:
-Less than 6 000 EER 9.0
-6000 to 7999 EER 9.0
-8 000 to 13 999 EER 8.5
-14 000 to 19 999 EER 8.5
-20 000 and over EER 8.5
Without louvred sides, with reverse cycle:
-less than 14 000 EER 8.5
