Archived List of Cleaner Hydronic Heaters
Phase 1 models are no longer considered "qualified" under the Program after March 31, 2010. Use of permanent labels and hang tags for these models must be discontinued on units manufactured after that date.
Below are 3 lists of cleaner burning hydronic heaters that qualified for the EPA voluntary program. The first table is for models that qualified for the Phase 1 orange tag for "year round" use (about 70 percent cleaner than unqualified models). Please note that although the tag is calculated for year round use, some jurisdictions may not allow "year round" use (i.e., not during summer for just hot water rather than heat). The second table is for models that qualified for the Phase 1 orange tag for "heating season use only." These emissions are calculated as if the model is only used during the heating season. Please note that some jurisdictions do not allow models that only qualify for "heating season use only" because their emissions would be greater if they are used year round.
The third table is archived Phase 2 models that are no longer manufactured, the expiration date has expired, or no longer meet the current emissions level.
