  2. Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 A Summary By Commercial Refrigerator Door Company

  3. EnergyIndependence andSecurityAct of 2007 • Primary Goals • To improve vehicle fuel economy • To reduce U.S. dependency on oil • Secondary Goals • To expand production of renewable fuels • To confront global climate change • To increase our energy security

  4. EISA by the Numbers • 2007: The year the Act was passed by Congress • 1501: The number of sections in the Act • 312: The section of the Act that speaks directly to walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers • 110: The session of Congress under which the Act was passed • 86: The number of Senators who voted to pass the legislation, only 8 members voted against the passage • 53: The average percentage of energy consumption by refrigeration units in supermarkets • 6: The Act began as House Resolution 6 and is often called H.R. 6 • 1: January 1, 2009 was the effective date for the Act, meaning door assemblies must now be manufactured in accordance with the new energy standards

  5. Comparing the Energy Policy Act of 2005 and the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 Reach-in coolers and freezers first appear in the 2005 Act. Effective date is 1/1/2010 (ironically, this date is later than effective dates in the 2007 Act). No specific call-out for individual components. Energy consumption requirements are for total reach-in assembly. No specific glass door requirements are called-out individually. Unlike some State requirements, compliance responsibility is that of the equipment manufacturer, not the retailer/user. • Walk-in coolers and freezers first appear in the 2007 Act. • Far-reaching Act covering consumer appliances, commercial refrigeration, A/C units, Federal building mandates, and much more. • Unlike the 2005 Act for reach-ins, the 2007 Act has very specific call-outs for individual components: panels, doors, interior lights. • Became effective on 1/1/2009 so manufacturers must provide compliant equipment.

  6. EnergyIndependenceandSecurityAct of 2007 New STYLELINE product line offers doors that are compliant with the Energy Act and offer more condensation protection. These changes affect the store owners and developers on any store or retrofit planned for the 2009 calendar year and beyond. The Act affects basically every walk-in cooler and freezer in convenience stores, supermarkets, and supercenters. While the spirit of the law is meant to promote sustainability and energy efficiency, it consequently creates increased equipment costs.

  7. 3 Primary Specifications • Glass doors for walk-in coolers shall be either double pane glass with heat reflective treated glass AND gas fill or triple-pane glass with either heat-reflective treated glass OR gas fill. • Glass doors for walk-in freezers shall be of triple-pane glass with either heat-reflective treated glass OR gas fill. • If the equipment has an anti-sweat heater the equipment shall have a total door rail, glass, and frame heater power draw of not more than 7.1 watts per square foot for freezers and 3.0 watts per square foot for coolers. If these energy draws are exceeded, the assembly must be equipped with an automatic energy controller.

  8. Recent Changes • Please visit our EISA Compliant Price Catalog to learn about our newest energy efficient door and frame assemblies. • Below you see a picture of our new label that will go on every door we manufacture. It includes the Energy Star logo and has a new finish that looks impressive and reflects the quality of STYLELINE products. • As always, feel free to contact us: • Alex Winsler Energy Specialist awinsler@STYLELINE.com 800-237-3940 ext. 1042
