The Federal Trade Commission is seeking comment on proposed labeling requirements for residential furnaces, central air conditioners, and heat pumps to help consumers and industry members install products that comply with Department of Energy efficiency standards for the regions where it will be installed. The proposed Rule would require manufacturers to post images of their EnergyGuide labels on their websites. The proposed rule also would require heating and cooling equipment manufacturers to change the EnergyGuide labels to the new design.

The FTC proposes to amend the EnergyGuide label content for heating and cooling equipment, and to expand the label's availability by requiring it on manufacturer websites, on product packaging, and at the point-of-sale. These changes should help industry members comply with the regional standards and aid consumers in their purchasing decisions for these products. The labels' proposed new content would disclose efficiency ratings in a simple format and provides regional information to help installers comply with the law. The proposed additional labeling disclosures will result in an estimated additional 13,667 burden hours, annualized, and cumulative of all affected manufacturers.
