Schedule 1—Product classes and minimum energy performance standards
Note: See section 16 and sections 21, 22 and 23.
(1) For section 16 of this Determination, a numbered product class identified in the following table consists of products that:
(a) are the kind of product indicated; and
(b) have the characteristics indicated; and
(c) have a value of R in the indicated range; and
(d) are not excluded by section 17 of this Determination.
(2) For this Schedule, R is:
(a) the rated standard cooling full capacity; or
(b) for heating‑only products—the rated standard heating full capacity.
(3) For the purposes of determining the relevant product class, the amount R must be rounded to the nearest 0.1kW.
Note: In the case of reverse cycle products, the relevant Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) for heating and cooling are both based on the product’s rated standard cooling full capacity (even if the product’s rated standard heating full capacity is different from its standard cooling full capacity).
