Summary
The federal government has set new energy efficiency standards for commercial warm air furnaces (the heating systems used in office buildings and other businesses) to reduce energy waste and lower heating costs.

Key Points
- 1Manufacturers of commercial heating furnaces must build more efficient models that waste less energy
- 2Businesses using these furnaces will see lower heating costs and reduced energy bills over time
- 3The standards help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by cutting unnecessary fuel consumption
- 4Manufacturers will need to redesign and test their furnaces to meet the new efficiency requirements
- 5The new standards apply to furnaces sold after a certain date set by the Department of Energy
