NOM-003-ENER-2000: Thermal efficiency of water heaters for domestic and commercial use. Limits, testing method and labeling
This standard applies to water heaters for domestic and commercial use using L.P. gas or natural gas that produces only hot water. Likewise, it applies only to the following types of heaters: (1) storage; (2) rapid recovery; and (3) instantaneous ; and heaters with maximum thermal loads of 35 kW for domestic heaters and thermal loads of 35 to 108 kW in commercial heaters.The standard establishes the thermal efficiency that the heaters must achieve based on the lower calorific power as well as the temperature of the hot water. See the attachment for the minimum thermal efficiency levels.The…

Residential Requirements of the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code
The International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) is a model code that regulates minimum energy conservation requirements for new buildings. The IECC addresses energy conservation requirements for all aspects of energy uses in both commercial and residential construction, including heating and ventilating, lighting, water heating, and power usage for appliances and building systems.

2000 Thermal Regulation
The new 2000 Thermal Regulation promulgated in November 2000 consists of a decree on the thermal characteristics of construction and an order relating to the thermal characteristics of new buildings and new additions to existing buildings. The new regulation "RT 2000" incorporates a general objective for the energy performance of the buildings and not merely constraints on particular aspects such as thermal insulation, thermal bridges, infiltration, etc. Space heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and domestic hot water are concerned (as is lighting in commercial and administrative buildings). The optimal combination can be chosen by building designers from among all possible solutions…
