According to the new standard, air-conditioning to increase the new level of energy efficiency requirements

Starting from tomorrow, frequency conversion air-conditioning, flat-screen TV, washing machine, air heater and range hood and other five types of household appliances, will begin to implement new energy efficiency standards. Home appliances Industry estimates, the implementation of new energy efficiency standards, air-conditioning and washing machine two categories of products are the most affected, product prices will rise by about 10%.

According to the new standard, air-conditioning to add a new level of energy efficiency requirements, the original and two-level energy-efficient air-conditioning will turn into level two and three. And the original level of the washing machine energy efficiency will be directly reduced to level five, the original level two to five products can not continue to sell.

Beijing Suning related people, in recent times, air-conditioning and washing machine manufacturers in increasing promotional efforts to clean up energy-consuming products, "these days air-conditioning and washing machines are basically 80 percent in sales." The source said that after the implementation of the new energy efficiency standards, air conditioning and washing machine products will increase the price of about 10%, "probably will cost a three hundred or four hundred Yuan", but due to the competition of flat-panel TV manufacturers, air heaters and Hood is the first implementation of energy efficiency standards, so the prices of these three types of products will not be a big fluctuation.
