Energy efficiency standards — cooled by air 118 (1) The energy efficiency standards set out in column 3 of Table 1 to this section apply to large air conditioners that are cooled by air and described in column 1 and that are manufactured during the period set out in column 4. Energy efficiency standards — cooled by water (2) The energy efficiency standards set out in column 3 of Table 2 to this section apply to large air conditioners that are cooled by water and described in column 1 and that are manufactured during the period set out in column 4. Energy efficiency standards — cooled by evaporation (2.1) The energy efficiency standards set out in column 3 of Table 3 to this section apply to large air conditioners that are cooled by evaporation and described in column 1 and that are manufactured during the period set out in column 4. Testing standard (3) A large air conditioner complies with the energy efficiency standard set out in column 3 if it meets that standard when tested in accordance with testing procedures established by the standard set out in column 2 that are applicable to a large air conditioner as defined in section 116.
