Guidance on how to figure out...
Is your product in scope?
Normally, your supplier will inform you whether a product is covered by energy labelling requirements. However, as a dealer, it is your responsibility to display or provide the energy label and product fiche for the energy-labelled products to your customers. Therefore it is important, that you know for sure if a product is or is not covered by energy labelling requirements. If you are uncertain whether a product is covered or not, then there are among others these ways to assess this :
- Ask the manufacturer or the importer again.
- Investigating the product-specific energy labelling regulations.
In each product-specific regulation, please look into articles 1 and 2. These two articles describe the scope of the regulations and also define which kind of product types the regulation does not apply to. - Search products in the EPREL product database for product groups and specific product models. Suppliers are required to register products in EPREL before they are placed on the internal EU market. Please contact the supplier if the product model is not registered.
