The final compliance phase of the DOE-mandated 2020 commercial refrigeration regulations was complete as of July 10, 2020, for medium and low-temperature unit coolers and for low temperature condensing units and packaged systems.
This journey included years of strict testing, meticulous engineering, continuous education, and an unwavering commitment to deliver new products that not only meet DOE Annual Walk-in Energy Factor (AWEF) minimum efficiencies but also improve serviceability and unit performance.
Enhanced unit performance
Heatcraft rounded out its new model product offering before the July 10 compliance date by launching unit coolers that meet DOE minimum AWEF within five product lines: low profile, a medium profile, center mount, low-velocity center mount, and large warehouse unit coolers. Manufactured under the brands Bohn, Larkin, Climate Control, and Chandler, these unit coolers are loaded with new installation and serviceability features that make it easier for refrigeration technicians to access components and to perform maintenance on the units when needed.
Additionally, end-users will benefit from energy-efficient features and enhanced unit performance. Heatcraft Refrigeration Products are ready with a comprehensive line of the new condensing units, unit cooler, and packaged system models that meet DOE minimum AWEF.
