UL 7004-2017 pdf download.Sustainability Standard for Household Cooking Appliances.
9.1.5.2.5 The points in this category are cumulative to a maximum of 6 points.
9.2 Attribute: Energy consumption during use
9.2.1 General
9.2.1.1 A life cycle screening conducted prior to the drafting of this Standard indicated triat the use phase of the cooking appliance was dominant across all impact categories. Energy consumed during the use phase of the cooking appliance contributed to the most significant environmental impacts: however, user behavior has the greatest effect on energy consumption. Furthermore, there are no encompassing energy standards in place to serve as a basis for scoring. Therefore, this Standard takes the approach of awarding points for design elements and consumer-oriented actions that will encourage efficient appliance use.
9.2.1.2 The first step in assessing a product is to determine its product category: built-in cooktop. built-in oven, or range (either free-standing or slide-in). With respect to design elements, built-in cooktops shall be assessed using the criteria under Clause 9.2.2. Built-in ovens shall be assessed using the criteria under Clause 9.2.3. Ranges shall be assessed using the criteria under Clause 9.2.4.
9.2.1.3 With respect to consumer-oriented actions, all kitchen cooking appliances within the scope of this standard shall be assessed using the criteria under Clause 9.2.5.
9.2.1.4 Regardless of product type, the points in this attribute are cumulative to a maximum of 35 points.
9.2.2 Criteria: Design elements for built-in cooktops
9.2.2.1 Assessment: Electric cooktops
9.2.2.1.1 The product shall receive points if it includes notification features aimed at the user that promote energy efficient use. The product shall receive 2 points per feature to a maximum of 6 points. Examples of notification features include, but are not limited to, timers, beepers, and wireless connectivity.
9.2.2.1.2 The product shall receive points if it includes automatic features that promote energy efficiency. The product shall receive 2 points per feature to a maximum of 6 points. Examples of automatic features include, but are not limited to, auto shut-off, power scaling, and pot/pan temperature sensor.
9.2.2.1.3 The product shall receive 2 points for each design element that promotes energy efficiency, to a maximum of 6 points. Examples of such design elements include, but are not limited to, low energy melt and simmer settings.
9.2.2.1.4 The product shall receive 4 points if it uses induction technology.
9.2.2.2 Assessment: Gas cooktops
9.2.2,2.1 The product shall receive points if it includes notification features aimed at the user that promote energy efficient use. The product shall receive 2 points per feature to a maximum of 6 points. Examples of notification features include, but are not limited to, timers, beepers, and wireless connectivity.
9.2.2.2.2 The product shall receive points if it includes automatic features that promote energy efficiency. The product shall receive 2 points per feature to a maximum of 8 points. Examples of automatic features include, but are not limited to, auto shut-off, power scaling, and pot/pan temperature sensor.
9.2.2.2.3 The product shall receive 2 points for design elements that promote energy efficiency, to a maximum of 8 points. Examples of such design elements include, but are not limited to, an electronic gas valve that allows for precision control of the gas input.
9.2.3 Criteria: Design elements for built-in ovens
9.2.3.1 The product shall receive points if it includes notification features aimed at the user that promote energy efficient use. The product shall receive 2 points per feature to a maximum of 6 points. Examples of notification features include, but are not limited to, timers, beepers, and wireless connectivity.
9.2.3.2 The product shall receive points if it includes automatic features that promotes energy efficiency. The product shall receive 2 points per feature to a maximum of 6 points. Examples of automatic features include, but are not limited to, auto shut-off, and power scaling.
9.2.3.3 The product shall receive 2 points for each design element that promote energy efficiency, to a maximum of 10 points. Examples of such design elements include, but are not limited to, multiple-sized cavities, convection technologies, exposed bake. or a self-cleaning feature (as proxy for added insulation)
9.2.4 Criteria: Design elements for ranges.
