Amends the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to include bottle-type water dispensers and compartment bottle-type water dispensers, commercial hot food holding cabinets, and portable electric spas as "covered products" under the Energy Conservation Program for Consumer Products Other than Automobiles.

Sets forth requirements concerning: (1) test procedures for such dispensers, cabinets, and spas; (2) standby energy consumption standards for dispensers; (3) idle energy rate standards for cabinets; and (4) normalized standby power rates standards for spas.

Excludes from the general rule of preemption for energy conservation standards before federal standards become effective for products a state regulation that establishes efficiency standards for such dispensers, cabinets, and spas. Excludes from the general rule of preemption when federal standards become effective for products a regulation that establishes standards for such products and is adopted by the California Energy Commission by January 1, 2013.
A bill to amend the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to establish efficiency standards for bottle-type water dispensers, commercial hot food holding cabinets, and portable electric spas.
