Energy Star is an outstanding organization and without a doubt a great resource for energy tips and saving money. They have research for big and small appliances explaining the value behind using products they approve big or small. They cover lightbulbs, TVs, washers, dryers, refrigerators, furnaces, fans and more. Many of the Energy Star products don’t cost anymore than conventional brands and EPA products won’t grant the Energy Star Label unless its figures show that you will recuperate the extra outlay within five years or less on electricity and water costs.
