  "heading": "The energy efficiency of air conditioners shall be determined on the basis of measurements and calculations set out Annex VII.",
  "text": "Both the SEER and SCOP shall take into account the reference design conditions and the operational hours per relevant mode of operation, and the SCOP shall relate to the heating season ‘average’, as laid down in Annex VII. The rated energy efficiency ratio (EERrated) and the rated coefficient of performance (COPrated) shall relate to standard rating conditions, as laid down in Annex VII.\nTable 1\nEnergy efficiency classes for air conditioners, except double ducts and single ducts\nEnergy Efficiency Class\nSEER\nSCOP\nA+++\nSEER ≥ 8,50\nSCOP ≥ 5,10\nA++\n6,10 ≤ SEER < 8,50\n4,60 ≤ SCOP < 5,10\nA+\n5,60 ≤ SEER < 6,10\n4,00 ≤ SCOP < 4,60\nA\n5,10 ≤ SEER < 5,60\n3,40 ≤ SCOP < 4,00\nB\n4,60 ≤ SEER < 5,10\n3,10 ≤ SCOP < 3,40\nC\n4,10 ≤ SEER < 4,60\n2,80 ≤ SCOP < 3,10\nD\n3,60 ≤ SEER < 4,10\n2,50 ≤ SCOP < 2,80\nE\n3,10 ≤ SEER < 3,60\n2,20 ≤ SCOP < 2,50\nF\n2,60 ≤ SEER < 3,10\n1,90 ≤ SCOP < 2,20\nG\nSEER < 2,60\nSCOP < 1,90\nTable 2\nEnergy efficiency classes for double ducts and single ducts\nEnergy Efficiency Class\nDouble ducts\nSingle ducts\nEERrated\nCOPrated\nEERrated\nCOPrated\nA+++\n≥ 4,10\n≥ 4,60\n≥ 4,10\n≥ 3,60\nA++\n3,60 ≤ EER < 4,10\n4,10 ≤ COP < 4,60\n3,60 ≤ EER < 4,10\n3,10 ≤ COP < 3,60\nA+\n3,10 ≤ EER < 3,60\n3,60 ≤ COP < 4,10\n3,10 ≤ EER < 3,60\n2,60 ≤ COP < 3,10\nA\n2,60 ≤ EER < 3,10\n3,10 ≤ COP < 3,60\n2,60 ≤ EER < 3,10\n2,30 ≤ COP < 2,60\nB\n2,40 ≤ EER < 2,60\n2,60 ≤ COP < 3,10\n2,40 ≤ EER < 2,60\n2,00 ≤ COP < 2,30\nC\n2,10 ≤ EER < 2,40\n2,40 ≤ COP < 2,60\n2,10 ≤ EER < 2,40\n1,80 ≤ COP < 2,00\nD\n1,80 ≤ EER < 2,10\n2,00 ≤ COP < 2,40\n1,80 ≤ EER < 2,10\n1,60 ≤ COP < 1,80\nE\n1,60 ≤ EER < 1,80\n1,80 ≤ COP < 2,00\n1,60 ≤ EER < 1,80\n1,40 ≤ COP < 1,60\nF\n1,40 ≤ EER < 1,60\n1,60 ≤ COP < 1,80\n1,40 ≤ EER < 1,60\n1,20 ≤ COP < 1,40\nG\n< 1,40\n< 1,60\n< 1,40\n< 1,20",
