New regulations for SASO energy efficiency labels verification
The new regulations for SASO energy efficiency labels (air-conditions, refrigerators/coolers, washing machines) will be carried out on Sep, 2013. The certificate’s validity term will be shortened to 1 year from the original 2 years and the energy efficiency tests should be issued by laboratories assembled with ISO 17025 qualifications. Safety detection reports should also be presented when applying for energy efficiency labels verification.
