Water heaters and hot water storage tanks

Draft COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION, supplementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1369 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to the energy labelling of water heaters, solar devices, shower water heat recovery devices, packages of those products and hot water storage tanks, and repealing Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 812/2013; (18 page(s), in English), (51 page(s), in English)

Regulation (EU) 1369/2017 requires the rescaling of the energy label for water heaters. The draft updates and rescales the label from the previous A+++/A++/A+ classes to a more straightforward A to G scale. New icons and features are added to the energy label, a QR code that link to the European Product Registry for Energy Labelling (EPREL), and an icon for energy-smart appliances. The draft Regulation clarifies the rights and obligations of dealers, including installers acting as dealers, in relation to energy labelling.
