DOE ordered Systemair, Inc., to pay a $8,000 civil penalty after finding Systemair had failed to certify that its single package vertical air conditioning and heating equipment comply with the applicable energy conservation standards. The Order adopted a Compromise Agreement, which reflected settlement terms between DOE and Systemair.

DOE regulations require a manufacturer (which includes importers) to submit reports certifying that its products have been tested and meet the applicable energy conservation standards.  DOE issued a civil penalty notice on February 5, 2016, advising the company of the potential penalties and DOE's administrative process, including the company's right to a hearing.
