ASHRAE Standard 16-2016
ASHRAE Standard 16-2016 Method of Testing for Rating Room Air Conditioners and Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners and Packaged Terminal Heat Pumps for Cooling and Heating Capacity prescribes methods of test for obtaining cooling capacity, heating capacity, and airflow quantity for rating room air conditioners and heat pumps and packaged terminal air conditioners and heat pumps.
This ASHRAE Standard 16-2016 is the latest revision of one of ASHRAE’s oldest standards. A short publishing history of this standard traces the origins of its provisions. The standard, originally evolved from the American Society of Refrigerating Engineers’ (ASRE) Circular 13-42, Standard Methods of Rating and Testing Air-Conditioning Equipment, and ASRE Standard 16-56, was first issued as ASHRAE Standard 16-1961, Method of Testing for Rating Room Air Conditioners, with revisions in 1969 and 1983.
