The new energy label for dishwashers
As part of the standardisation process, the previous "Plus" classes (A +++, A ++ and A +) have also been replaced for dishwashers by a uniform scale from A to G. According to the previous standard, the new energy efficiency class B corresponds approximately to a device with A +++ -23 %.
In the future, a QR code will generally be found on all energy labels, which links to the EU product database EPREL. There you will find further information on the energy label and the product data sheet of the respective device.
Furthermore, new more realistic requirements (e.g. with pots) are introduced when specifying the place settings. Therefore, the values here will now be different compared to the old energy label.
The consumption of water and electricity is now no longer stated on the annual value, but per cycle or 100 flushing processes.
Also new are the introduced noise classes from A-D to make the noise level in dB (A) more transparent
