You’ve heard the term Energy Star….

Probably on TV, in magazines, newspapers, at the store, walking down the street, I could go on…. but do you really know what it means?

Energy Star was created by The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and The U.S. Department of Energy in 1992 to “[help] us all save money and protect the environment through energy efficient products and practices.” (energystar.gov)

So far Americans and Energy Star have saved $19 billion on utility bills.

Energy Star products can save you up to a third on your energy bill and range from appliances to homes.

To qualify for the Energy Star label appliances must meet the energy efficient guidelines the EPA and U.S. Department of Energy have set up.

If you need help saving energy or have questions about Energy Star products or tax deductions please give us a call at 866-284-8604.

We can also help you decide if you could benefit from upgrading your appliances by giving you a Free Energy Analysis.
