@JLReyna This is for National, not a California project, so we figured we didn't need the T24 option. We could include for completeness and to standardize options_lookup, if you think that would be useful. |
Ah, right. I forgot because I was looking into this for IDSM (and we'll probably pull Joe's options over). I think we need the T20 for IDSM, but that wouldn't be addressed here. |

It seems like it could be confusing that the "Most" and "More" options have the same IMEF. The only difference appears to be the drum volume, which would imply that the difference is not really an efficiency difference. I'd propose removing the EnergyStar More Efficient option unless there's a good reason to keep it.

The only two values that make a difference in the clothes washer calculation are rated_annual_energy and annual_cost. These values are different so "most" is a better option. imef and drum_volume are only used for the clothes dryer portion. imef for the "most" option could be increased slightly to reflect the lower rated_annual_energy use, but it will impact only the dryer performance.

@JLReyna Thanks for the explanation. A slightly reduced imef that is in roughly line with real products would be nice. We could consider including the rated kWh/yr in the option name to give it more prominence...

Pull Request Description
We need "more efficient" options for idsm-scout and mf aedg. Currently, the dw, cw options are causing increased energy consumption. Janet had started to look into this. Turns out things related to the energy guide label, like
rated_annual_energy,annual_cost, andtest_date, had not been updated.Options (and tests) updated/added:
