• Did you know that the average home spends about $2,000 on energy bills every year? Change to appliances that have earned the ENERGY STAR rating, and see significant savings in energy costs while saving the environment.

• ENERGY STAR qualified appliances incorporate advanced technologies that use 10–50% less energy and water than standard models. The money you save on your utility bills can more than make up for the cost of upgrading to a more efficient ENERGY STAR model.

• Always look for the Energy Star and Energy Guide labels when shopping for home appliances. The Energy Star label is the government's seal of energy efficiency and estimates appliance energy consumption.

• For greatest efficiency, Energy Star recommends setting your refrigerator temperature between 35-38 degrees and freezers at zero degrees.

• It just makes sense to buy energy efficient appliances, since 20% of all energy used in your home goes into running them.

• Keeping all your appliances well maintained can result in demonstrable energy (and utility bill) savings.

• Having ENERGY STAR® qualified appliances can save you 20 to 30 percent in energy costs over the course of one year.

• Having Energy-efficient appliances can help you reduce utility bills while conserving natural resources.

• ENERGY STAR® qualified appliances use 10 to 66 percent less energy and/or water than standard models without sacrificing features and quality.
