Cut Bills Fast With Efficient Appliances Secret Tricks

Understanding Energy Star Ratings

Energy Star is a trusted symbol for energy efficiency, backed by the government and recognized by consumers. Appliances with this label meet strict energy performance standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). These standards ensure that products not only save energy but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions. For example, Energy Star-rated refrigerators use about 15% less energy than non-rated models, and dishwashers can save up to 3,870 gallons of water over their lifetime².
