What can I save by using ENERGY STAR qualified commercial solid door refrigerators and freezers?
ENERGY STAR labeled commercial solid door refrigerators and freezers are more energy efficient because they are designed with components such as ECM evaporator and condenser fan motors, hot gas anti-sweat heaters, or high-efficiency compressors, which significantly reduce energy consumption and utility bills. Purchasers, who buy commercial solid door refrigerators and freezers, can expect to save $170 annually per refrigerator and $120 per freezer. If all the existing commercial solid door refrigerators and freezers in the US were replaced with ENERGY STAR labeled models the result would be savings of almost $250 million per year, or roughly 25% of the energy consumed by models currently on the market — the equivalent of eliminating the emissions from 475,000 cars.
