(ii) Adjustable speed controls (either more than 1 speed or variable speed);
(iii) The capability of reversible fan action, except for—
(A) Fans sold for industrial applications;
(B) Outdoor applications; and
(C) Cases in which safety standards would be violated by the use of the reversible mode.
(2)(i) Ceiling fan light kits with medium screw base sockets manufactured on or after January 1, 2007, shall be packaged with screw-based lamps to fill all screw base sockets.
(ii) The screw-based lamps required under paragraph (2)(i) of this section shall—
(A) Meet the ENERGY STAR Program requirements for Compact Fluorescent Lamps, version 3; or
(B) Use light sources other than compact fluorescent lamps that have lumens per watt performance at least equivalent to comparable configured compact fluorescent lamps meeting the energy conservation standards described in paragraph (2)(ii)(A) of this section.
(3) Ceiling fan light kits with pin-based sockets for fluorescent lamps manufactured on or after January 1, 2007 shall—
(i) Meet the ENERGY STAR Program Requirements for Residential Light Fixtures version 4.0 issued by the Environmental Protection Agency; and
(ii) Be packaged with lamps to fill all sockets.
(t) Torchieres. A torchiere manufactured on or after January 1, 2006 shall:
(1) Consume not more than 190 watts of power; and
(2) Not be capable of operating with lamps that total more than 190 watts.
(u) Medium Base Compact Fluorescent Lamps. A bare lamp and covered lamp (no reflector) medium base compact fluorescent lamp manufactured on or after January 1, 2006, shall meet the following requirements:
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------ Factor Requirements------------------------------------------------------------------------Lamp Power (Watts) & Minimum Efficiency: lumen/watt Configuration\1\. (Based upon initial lumen data).\2\Base Lamp: Lamp Power <15.................. 45.0. Lamp Power >=15.................... 60.0.Covered Lamp (no reflector): Lamp Power <15.................. 40.0. 15[le] Lamp Power <19........... 48.0. 19[le] Lamp Power <25........... 50.0. Lamp Power >=25.................... 55.0.Covered Lamp (with reflector): Lamp Power <20.................. 33.0. Lamp Power >=20.................... 40.0.1,000-hour Lumen Maintenance........... The average of at least 5 lamps must be a minimum 90.0% of initial (100-hour) lumen output @ 1,000 hours of rated life.Lumen Maintenance...................... 80.0% of initial (100-hour) rating at 40 percent of rated life (per ANSI C78.5 Clause 4.10).Rapid Cycle Stress Test................ Per ANSI C78.5 and IESNA LM-65 (clauses 2,3,5, and 6). Exception: Cycle times must be 5 minutes on, 5 minutes off. Lamp will be cycled once for every two hours of rated life. At least 5 lamps must meet or exceed the minimum number of cycles.Average Rated Lamp Life................ >=6,000 hours as declared by the manufacturer on packaging and qualification form. At 80% of rated life, statistical methods may be used to confirm lifetime claims based on sampling performance.------------------------------------------------------------------------\1\ Take performance and electrical requirements at the end of the 100- hour aging period according to ANSI Standard C78.5. The lamp efficacy shall be the average of the lesser of the lumens per watt measured in the base up an/or other specified positions. Use wattages place on packaging to select proper specification efficacy in this table, not measured wattage. Labeled wattages are for reference only.\2\ Efficacies are based on measured values for lumens and wattages from pertinent test data. Wattages and lumens placed on packages may not be used in calculation and are not governed by this specification. For multi-level or dimmable systems, measurements shall be at the highest setting. Acceptable measurement error is ±3%.

(v) Dehumidifiers. Dehumidifiers manufactured on or after October 1, 2007, shall have an energy factor that meets or exceeds the following values:
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------ Minimum energy Product capacity (pints/day) factor (liters/ kWh)------------------------------------------------------------------------25.00 or less........................................... 1.0025.01-35.00............................................. 1.2035.01-54.00............................................. 1.3054.01-74.99............................................. 1.5075.00 or more........................................... 2.25------------------------------------------------------------------------
