DOE

DOE stands for the U.S. Department of Energy.

DOE certification is issued to promote energy conservation and emission reduction, help users save electricity, reduce energy demand, and mitigate the greenhouse effect.

All products covered by DOE certification must comply with applicable laws and regulations.

CEC

CEC stands for the California Energy Commission.

Its mission is to foster a competitive and sustainable energy market.

Since 1976, the CEC has enforced California’s Appliance Efficiency Regulations — the only mandatory U.S. energy-saving rule that can influence non-governmental consumer behavior — and has played a key role in reducing energy consumption.

Both the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and California Energy Commission (CEC) impose energy efficiency testing and registration requirements for plumbing fittings and bathroom equipment.
