EKO_Q35_Dishwasher Version 7.1.1

Modified on Wed, 29 Jan at 5:09 PM

PHOTO REQUIRED of dishwasher nameplate/model number (if installed) or empty space (if not installed) per MINHERS Chapter 9. Raters/RFIs are responsible for documenting reasons for missing photos. Dishwashers are often installed at time of final inspection for new homes. If the builder provides this appliance, the Rater/RFI should provide supporting documentation in form of spec sheet/purchase order from the builder. If the builder does not provide a major appliance, the software model should reflect the same input as the reference home (typically the RESNET default value) so not to claim credit on the HERS Index for something not provided at time of rating.

  • Dishwasher efficiency shown on the EnergyGuide that ships with the appliance can differ from published data for the same model. Rater/RFI shall document which source they verify and provide supporting documentation (photo of the EnergyGuide or photo of nameplate w/ model #).

SCORING:

"Satisfactory" when correct or "Unsatisfactory" when incorrect.

GUIDANCE:

  • Efficiency Type - Select kWh/yr or EF based off the available information
  • Energy Rating - kWh/yr or EF matches EnergyGuide for verified model or if not installed, then the RESNET default value is used
  • Unlike the refrigerator/freezer, multiple dishwashers are not summed when there is more than one. Instead, you use the data for the one that will get the most usage.
  • Dishwasher size - Value in software corresponds with supporting docs or onsite verification. If multiple dishwashers of different sizes are present, use the larger of the different sizes.
