For SI:	1 British thermal unit per hour = 0.2931 W.
a	Chapter 6 of the referenced standard contains a complete specification of the referenced test procedure, including the referenced year version of the test procedure.
b	Minimum and maximum ratings as provided for and allowed by the unit's controls.
c	Combination units not covered by the National Appliance Energy Conservation Act of 1987 (NAECA) (3-phase power or cooling capacity greater than or equal to 65,000 Btu/h [19 kW]) shall comply with either rating.

dEt	=	Thermal efficiency. See test procedure for detailed discussion.
eEc	=	Combustion efficiency (100% less flue losses). See test procedure for detailed discussion.
fEc	=	Combustion efficiency. Units must also include an IID, have jackets not exceeding 0.75 percent of the input rating, and have either power venting or a flue damper. A vent damper is an acceptable alternative to a flue damper for those furnaces where combustion air is drawn from the conditioned space.
gEt	=	Thermal efficiency. Units must also include an IID, have jacket losses not exceeding 0.75 percent of the input rating, and have either power venting or a flue damper. A vent damper is an acceptable alternative to a flue damper for those furnaces where combustion air is drawn from the conditioned space.
