AMCA Certified Ratings Program
AMCA's Certified Ratings Program provides trustworthy performance ratings globally for commercial and industrial air movement & air control products
Air Movement and Control Association International
Products certified through AMCA International’s Certified Ratings Program (CRP) provide the market with reliable performance representations for airflow, sound, and energy consumption. AMCA qualifies companies’ catalogue ratings and allows AMCA performance labels to display on Certified equipment, catalogues, and websites. Certified performance ratings are validated by their listing on AMCA’s website Certified product search page.
For the consumer's assurance, AMCA performs check tests on a periodic basis to ensure manufacturers continue to report comparable and creditable product performance information. An innovative energy labelling scheme is available for most Certified product areas, allowing consumers to identify credible, vetted solutions quickly. Any third party or competing manufacturer can initiate challenge testing of AMCA Certified products as well.

Matching industry practices with standards developed for energy-efficiency and green construction
AMCA constantly revises standards and publications to proactively move with the HVAC market. In 2019, AMCA’s members finalised a new fan-efficiency metric: FEI.
The Standard is named ANSI/AMCA Standard 214-21 - Test Procedure for Calculating Fan Energy Index (FEI) for Commercial and Industrial Fans and Blowers.
What is the Fan Energy Index (FEI)?
The Fan Energy Index (FEI)...
Measures wire-to-air efficiency,
Is based on Operating Point as opposed to Peak Efficiency,
Allows comparison for application based on fan types and sizes, motor, and drive combinations.
Remember …
Higher FEI (Fan Energy Index) = Higher efficiency
Lower FEP (Fan Electric Input Power) = Lower electricity consumption
Optimising fan selection saves energy!
FEI is gradually making its way into model energy codes and standards for energy efficiency and green construction as a reference standard for provisions in the following:
2021 International Green Construction Code (IgCC),
ANSI/ASHRAE/IES 90.1-2019,
ANSI/ASHRAE/USGBC/IES 189.1,
2021 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), and
Various State Codes
Further, FEI serves as a basis for upcoming California Energy Commission and Department of Energy legislations. Systemair utilizes AMCA Certified Ratings Program for fan air performance to match our sustainability framework ambitions.
Systemair is proud to partner with AMCA, and will continue to be a major participant moving forward.
