Minimum Energy Performance Standards - Air Conditioners
For the table below R is the rated standard cooling full capacity; or for heating‑only products—the rated standard heating full capacity 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).
