In addition, Section 34 of the Code states claims relating to performance, energy savings, safety, efficacy or results for a product or service should be based on recent and competent testing or other objective data. Lastly, Section 37.1 of the Code states that “Made in USA” and similar terms used to describe the origin of a product must be truthful and substantiated.
