Translation of "Appareil de chauffage en veine d'air " (French → English) :

‘appliances’ are appliances burning gaseous fuels used for cooking, heating, hot water production, refrigeration, lighting or washing as well as forced draught burners* and heaters to be equipped with such burners.

Mr. Marty may be able to deal with this better than I can, but taking an example of something like a regulation concerning energy and housing or furnaces, not only would you look at what happens when the regulation is put in, but also at what happens as the furnace stock turns over during a 25-year period.

‘air conditioner’ means a device capable of cooling or heating, or both, indoor air, using a vapour compression cycle driven by an electric compressor, including air conditioners that provide additional functionalities such as dehumidification, air-purification, ventilation or supplemental air-heating by means of electric resistance heating and appliances that may use water (either condensate water that is formed on the evaporator side or externally added water) for evaporation on the condensor, provided that the device is also able to function without the use of additional water, using air only.
