Notice of petition for waiver,
notice of grant an interim waiver, and
request for comment.
ACTION:
This notice announces receipt
of and publishes a petition for waiver
from JCI seeking an exemption from
specified portions of the U.S.
Department of Energy (DOE) test
procedure for determining the efficiency
of central air conditioners (CAC) and
heat pumps (HP). According to JCI,
testing its CAC and HP basic models
that use variable-speed, oil-injected
scroll compressors (VSS systems) with
only a 20-hour break-in period produces
results unrepresentative of their true
energy consumption characteristics, and
would provide materially inaccurate
comparative data. JCI requests that in
lieu of the 20-hour break-in limit, it be
permitted to test its VSS systems with
a 72-hour break-in period. This notice
also grants JCI an interim waiver from
the DOE CAC and HP test procedure for
its specified basic models, subject to use
of the alternative test procedure as set
forth in this notice. DOE solicits
comments, data, and information
concerning JCI’s petition and its
suggested alternate test procedure.
DATES: DOE will accept comments, data,
and information with respect to the JCI
Petition until October 20, 2017.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,
identified by case number ‘‘CAC–051’’
and Docket number ‘‘EERE–2017–BT–
