Certified models meet all ENERGY STAR requirements as listed in the Version 8.0 ENERGY STAR Program Requirements for Clothes Washers that are effective as of February 5, 2018. A detailed listing of key efficiency criteria are available at https://www.energystar.gov/products/appliances/clothes_washers/key_product_criteria.
This dataset has the following 20 columns:
| Column Name | API Column Name | Data Type | Description | Sample Values |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ENERGY STAR Unique ID | pd_id | number | The ENERGY STAR Unique ID (ESUID) is a string of seven numbers EPA assigns to an ENERGY STAR model or set of models with unique performance characteristics. This ESUID is unique to both the model and product specification version and is assigned by EPA upon receipt of certification information from the certification body. Each row within the product list will have a unique ESUID. Developers may wish to use this ESUID to track information on certified models in their information systems. | 2385032 2670638 2375441 2341166 2343850 view top 100 |

| Intended Market | intended_market | text | This refers to whether the product is intended to be sold in the residential market, the commercial/multi-family housing/coin laundry market, or both. | Commercial view top 100 |
| Volume (cu. ft.) | volume_cubic_feet | number | This is the tub capacity of the clothes washer in cubic feet, as measured by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) test procedure, Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Section 430, Appendix J2. | 3.4 3.1 6 4.6 2.6 view top 100 |
| Modified Energy Factor (MEF) | modified_energy_factor_mef | number | MEF is the energy performance metric for ENERGY STAR certified commercial clothes washers. The higher the MEF, the more energy efficient the clothes washer. The metric has units: ft3/kWh/cycle, and is calculated as the quotient of the capacity of the clothes container divided by the total clothes washer energy consumption per cycle, with such energy consumption expressed as the sum of the machine electrical energy consumption, the hot water energy consumption, and the energy required for removal of the remaining moisture in the wash load. For example, if a clothes washer has a tub volume of 4.0 cubic feet and a total clothes washer energy consumption per cycle of 10 kWh/cycle, then the MEF is 2.5. | 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5 view top 100 |

| Annual Energy Use (kWh/yr) | annual_energy_use_kwh_year | number | This is the estimated annual energy use of the clothes washer under typical conditions, including the energy used by the washer and the energy needed to heat the water used by the clothes washer with an electric water heater. Unlike MEF, the estimated annual energy use does not address how effective the washer is at removing moisture from the wash load and thus reducing the energy needed to fully dry a load in the clothes dryer. It is based on an annual usage of 1,074 loads per year for multi-family and 1,483 loads per year for laundromat applications, or around 21 and 29 loads per week respectively, as referenced by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) test procedure, Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Section 430, Appendix J2. Actual energy consumption will vary depending on various factors such as the amount of laundry done, the size of the loads, and the settings chosen. | 44 201 80 90 114 view top 100 |
| Water Factor (WF) | water_factor_wf | number | WF is the water performance metric for ENERGY STAR qualified clothes washers. The lower the WF, the more efficient the clothes washer. The metric has units: gallons/cycle/ft3, and is calculated as the quotient of total weighted per-cycle water consumption divided by the capacity of the clothes washer. For example, if a clothes washer has a total weighted per-cycle water consumption of 20 gallons and a tub volume of 4.0 cubic feet, then the water factor is 5.0. | view top 100 |

| Integrated Water Factor (IWF) | integrated_water_factor_iwf | number | IWF is the water performance metric for ENERGY STAR certified clothes washers. The lower the IWF, the more efficient the clothes washer. The metric has units: gallons/cycle/ft3, and is calculated as the quotient of total weighted per-cycle water consumption divided by the capacity of the clothes washer. For example, if a clothes washer has a total weighted per-cycle water consumption of 20 gallons and a tub volume of 4.0 cubic feet, then the IWF is 5.0. | 4 3.5 3.8 3.3 3.9 view top 100 |

| CB Model Identifier | energy_star_model_identifier | text | A unique string of characters assigned by certification bodies (CBs) to identify a model or set of models with the same performance characteristics. This identifier should remain the same for a model even if it is recertified to a new version of an ENERGY STAR specification. This string of characters is determined by CBs and is not the ENERGY STAR Unique ID assigned by EPA. | ES_87091_HTGN****095C***_100720211025653_4582801 ES_22856_MLE22PDAY**_12182017192909_5349278 ES_22856_MLE22PRAY**_12182017192746_5266837 ES_87091_HFNN****115T***_042420241823678_9478440 ES_1118034_TCW2013***_01092018035655_70169036 view top 100 |
