Did you know that the average home spends about $1,900 on energy bills every year? By selecting home appliances that have earned the ENERGY STAR, you can save $80 a year in energy costs while helping to save the environment.
- Save Energy, Save Money: When buying an appliance, be aware of its two price tags: what you pay to take it home and what you pay for the energy and water it uses. ENERGY STAR units are both energy and cost saving home appliances, incorporating advanced technologies that use 10–50% less energy and water than standard models. The money you save on your utility bills by selecting home appliances with an ENERGY STAR seal can more than make up for the additional costs of the environmentally friendly models.
- Help Protect the Environment: Simple actions can make a big difference. If just one in ten homes used ENERGY STAR qualified appliances, the environmental impact would be equivalent to planting 1.7 million new acres of trees. For top performance, premium features, and energy savings, look for energy-efficient clothes washers, refrigerators, dishwashers, room air conditioners, dehumidifiers and other cost saving home appliances that have earned the ENERGY STAR. This mark may appear on the appliance, the packaging or the Energy Guide label.
