Saving the Earth. Saving Your Money.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) are working together to promote the use of energy-efficient equipment by awarding the ENERGY STAR label to products that save energy. The agencies set energy efficiency criteria for specific consumer and commercial products. These criteria exceed the minimum national efficiency standards, where such standards exist. Manufacturers and retailers volunteer to place the ENERGY STAR label on those models that meet or exceed the criteria set by EPA and DOE.
The ENERGY STAR label can help make purchasing decisions easier. These products not only save energy, they help prevent air pollution and save money, frequently with better performance. Remember to look for the ENERGY STAR label - the symbol of energy efficiency.
