About Energy Star Dehumidifiers
A 40-pint ENERGY STAR qualified dehumidifier can save consumers roughly $20 per year. This can add up to $200 or more over the life of the unit. That's enough to pay for the dehumidifier!
Earning the ENERGY STAR means a product meets strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the US Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy.
- ENERGY STAR qualified models have more efficient refrigeration coils, compressors, and fans than conventional models, which means they use less energy to remove moisture.
- An ENERGY STAR qualified model removes the same amount of moisture as a similarly-sized standard unit, but uses 10-20 percent less energy. In fact, the energy saved by an ENERGY STAR qualified dehumidifier could power your refrigerator for 6 months!
- You can calculate specific energy and money savings by using the dehumidifier calculator available on Myenergystar.com, the ENERGY STAR Northeast Web site.
In addition to energy performance, there are many other important operating and convenience features to consider when shopping for dehumidifiers:
