DOE Certified Appliances & Equipment Scraper - CCMS

This DOE Compliance Certification Database scraper (CCMS) gives you every model a manufacturer has certified to the US Department of Energy, as clean rows: pick a product group such as air compressors, pumps, distribution transformers, walk-in coolers, commercial refrigeration, water heaters, boilers or HVAC, and get brand, basic model number, individual model numbers, equipment class and every certified rating (flow, horsepower, efficiency, capacity, energy use, kVA ...).

Use it as a US equipment supplier list (one row per brand with its model count), a model-number lookup API, a spec and efficiency database for product comparison, or a competitor catalogue of who sells which models into the US, from your own code, Make, Zapier, n8n or an AI agent.

It reads the public CCMS search service at regulations.doe.gov over plain HTTP, with no browser and no login. The prefilled demo returns 20 air compressor models (1.9 s locally and 4.5 s in an Apify cloud run on 8 November 2026). $0.50 per 1,000 results, no start fee.

What goes in: product groups (73 to choose from), optional search words or model numbers, optional brand names. What comes out: one row per certified model, or one row per brand with a switch. When to use it: you need to know which brands sell a type of regulated equipment in the US, which models they certified, and the ratings they reported.

What it does not have: no prices, no minimum order quantities, no e-mails, no phone numbers and no manufacturer addresses. CCMS stores the brand name, not the legal manufacturer. It is a certification record, not a catalogue.

What you get

• Product: product group, product type, equipment class (e.g. "Rotary, Lubricated, Air-Cooled, Fixed-Speed Compressor").
• Brand and models: brand name, basic model number, individual model numbers covered by it.
• Ratings: every certified value of the model in specs, with readable names, e.g. "Full Load Actual Volume Flow Rate (CFM)": 1041.7, "Compressor Motor Nominal Horsepower (hp)": 177. Fields differ per product group.
• Compliance flags: test-procedure waiver, exception relief, link to the FTC EnergyGuide label when filed.
• Brand mode: one row per brand in a group with its number of certified records, e.g. Pumps: Grundfos 17,900, Armstrong 1,316, EBARA 1,166, Goulds Water Technology - Xylem 984, Bell & Gossett - Xylem 853 (75 pump brands, run 8 November 2026).

Size of the database on 8 November 2026: 4,714,625 certified records in 73 product groups, for example Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps - Central 3,764,692, Faucets 120,304, Distribution Transformers - Liquid-Immersed 43,204, Pumps 27,848, Walk-In Cooler refrigeration systems 24,002, Compressors 11,431.

Sample output

Real rows from the prefilled run (Compressors, 8 November 2026), a few fields:

brand	basic model	class	flow (CFM)	motor (hp)	pressure (psig)
Atlas Copco	GA132A3 AIR ENREC 60HZ HDFIL 2025 460V-3PH APF 5.2BAR	Rotary, Lubricated, Air-Cooled, Fixed-Speed	1041.7	177	75
Atlas Copco	GA110A3 AIR ENREC 60HZ HDFIL 2025 460V-3PH APF 5.2BAR	Rotary, Lubricated, Air-Cooled, Fixed-Speed	879.6	148	75
Atlas Copco	GA90PA3 WATER FFDRY 60HZ HDFIL 2025 460V-3PH APF 5.2BAR	Rotary, Lubricated, Liquid-Cooled, Fixed-Speed	653.6	121	75

Use cases

• Supplier sourcing: list every brand certifying compressors, pumps, transformers, commercial fridges or boilers in the US, with model counts
• Spec comparison: pull ratings of all models in a class and sort by efficiency, capacity or energy use
• Model-number lookup: check that a model is certified and what it reported
• Competitor tracking: see which models a rival brand certified, and run it again later to catch new ones
• Lead generation for suppliers to these industries: brands active in a product group (company data only)

Pricing

$0.50 per 1,000 results (pay per result, $0.0005 each), no start fee, platform usage included. A result is one row saved to your dataset. Searches that find nothing, duplicates and failed requests are never charged. Set Max results per search to cap the cost of a run.

The data is public. You pay for the ready rows, the filters and the clean field names, not for access.

No other Apify Store actor for the DOE Compliance Certification Database turned up in a live Store search on 8 November 2026 (regulations.doe.gov, department of energy, appliance efficiency, hvac certified models, distribution transformer) or again on 9 November 2026 (doe, ccms, doe certified, appliance models, energy efficiency, hvac equipment). The nearest are ENERGY STAR actors, which cover a different, voluntary programme: pankajbhatia $0.30 per 1,000 + a start fee, nexgensignal $50 per 1,000 (1 user each in 30 days), and our own ENERGY STAR Certified Products Scraper at $0.29.

FAQ

Where does the data come from? From the Compliance Certification Database of the US Department of Energy (regulations.doe.gov/certification-data), the same records as its public search. DOE says the data are the representations certified by manufacturers, provided as is, and that a listing is not a DOE finding that the model complies. This actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by DOE.

How fresh is it? As fresh as CCMS, which DOE reloads regularly. Only current certified records are in it, no history.

Does it include the manufacturer's name or contacts? No. CCMS shows the brand name. Use brand mode to get the list of brands, then look up the companies.

Why do some groups have millions of rows? Central air conditioners and heat pumps are certified per indoor/outdoor combination. Use a search term (a model prefix) or a brand to narrow them, and set Max results per search.

How do search terms work? A term is matched anywhere in the record (brand, model numbers, class), case-insensitive, including parts of words: GA11 finds GA110 models.

How do brand words work? The actor reads the brand list of the chosen groups and keeps every brand that contains your word: xylem gives "Goulds Water Technology - Xylem" and "Bell & Gossett - Xylem". Words that match no brand are reported in the run summary and cost nothing.

Are there limits? The actor sends one request at a time, 200 records each, with a declared user agent. Runs of tens of thousands of rows take a few minutes. Runs above about 50,000 rows were not tested.

Known gaps: brand, not legal manufacturer; field names and units come from DOE templates and differ per group; individual model numbers may hold the maker's own wildcards (*, #); no prices or availability.

How to use

1. Open the actor and pick one or more Product groups, e.g. Compressors.
2. Optional: add Search terms or model numbers and Brands.
3. Turn on One row per brand if you want a supplier list instead of models.
4. Set Max results per search (start with 20) and click Start. Export as CSV, Excel or JSON.
