What appliances qualify?

Energy Star rated products are independently certified to save energy, money and also help protect against climate change by lowering your carbon footprint. In 2018, Energy Star rated appliances had a 430 billion kilowatt-hour reduction and reduced 3.5 billion metric tons in greenhouse gas emissions(1). That’s an incredible amount of energy savings, and it contributes to a greener future.
