Many of the appliances for sale in the United States are Energy Star certified, which means that they use less energy than their conventional non-energy efficient counterparts. However, energy efficient appliances often come a premium price, leaving homeowners to wonder, are energy efficient appliances worth it?
In most cases, the answer is "yes". The amount that you'll save depends on your electricity costs and the appliances you are looking to replace, plus any incentives available for energy efficient appliances in your area.
Luckily, EEA can assist with rebates on qualifying Energy Star appliances. Review our Electrify & Save Rebate Program information and apply for your rebate and an new qualifying appliance.
