AI Summary
This bill establishes minimum energy and water efficiency standards for certain products sold in Pennsylvania, including air purifiers, commercial appliances, faucets, lamps, portable electric spas, ventilating fans, showerheads, spray sprinkler bodies, urinals, and water coolers. The bill requires manufacturers to test, certify, and label their products as compliant with the new standards, and empowers the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission to enforce the standards and impose penalties for noncompliance.
