Did you know that a refrigerator made today is about 40% more efficient than one manufactured just two years ago. That translates into serious savings for you.
When buying an appliance, remember that it has two price tags: what you pay to take it home and what you pay for the energy and water it uses. 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 a more expensive but more efficient ENERGY STAR model.
The cost of electricity is going up and if you live in Silver Spring about 57% of your electrical power comes from not too "clean coal." You can cut back on your electrical consumption, save money and save a few mountain tops from being leveled in the process of getting your "clean coal."
If you are replacing appliances, look for the energy star symbol.
