Star Clothes Washer
ENERGY
STAR labeled clothes washers use superior designs that require
less water to get clothes thoroughly clean. These machines
use sensors to match the hot water needs to the load, preventing
energy waste.
Front-Loading: ENERGY STAR qualified models
are similar in design to washers used in laundromats. These
horizontal-axis or tumble action machines repeatedly lift
and drop clothes, instead of moving clothes around a central
axis.
Top-Loading: Some of these ENERGY STAR
qualified washers use sensor technology to closely control
the incoming water temperature. To reduce water consumption,
ENERGY STAR labeled top loading clothes washers spray clothes
with repeated high pressure rinses to remove soap residues
rather than soaking them in a full tub of rinse water.
A typical household does nearly 400 loads of laundry per
year, using about 40 gallons of water per full load with
a conventional washer. In contrast, a full-sized ENERGY STAR
qualified clothes washer uses 18-25 gallons per load. You
could save 7,000 gallons of water per year or more. And,
you are saving all the energy that would have been needed
to heat the water. This adds up to savings for you and a
big boost for the environment.
ENERGY STAR labeled clothes washers come in a range of capacities
from about 1.6 cubic feet up to 3.1 cubic feet. A typical
large-capacity washer found in most households is about 2.7
cubic feet. Because washers are most efficient when they
are fully loaded, you should choose a size that most closely
matches your laundry needs. For a family that does a lot
of laundry, one of the larger models probably makes the most
sense. For an individual or couple who does less laundry,
a small model will be the most economical. Some ENERGY STAR
labeled models can be stacked or mounted under a counter
top. This is a useful feature for people short on space,
such as apartment dwellers. Check with the manufacturer to
see which models are available in this configuration.

Energy
Star Dishwasher
ENERGY
STAR labeled dishwashers save by using both improved technology
for the primary wash cycle, and by using less hot water to
clean. Construction includes more effective washing action,
energy efficient motors and other advanced technology such
as sensors that determine the length of the wash cycle and
the temperature of the water necessary to clean the dishes.
Significant
savings can be realized by minimizing the amount of hot water
needed. The water temperature in a dishwasher should be at
least 140 degrees Fahrenheit to clean your dishes. The ENERGY
STAR qualified models with internal water heaters boost the
water temperature inside the dishwasher. This allows you to
turn down the thermostat on your household water heater to
120 degrees, reducing your water heating costs by 20%.
Using your dishwasher's heater to dry dishes consumes a significant
amount of energy. Federal law requires that all new dishwashers
have a no-heat drying option. This is often called the "energy
saver" feature. This takes a little longer, but dries
the dishes as well as the energy-guzzling heat drying operation.
CPI offers a $25 rebate for ENERGY STAR dish washers if
your house has an electric water heater. Click

Star Refrigerator
ENERGY
STAR qualified refrigerators require about half as much energy
as models manufactured before 1993. ENERGY STAR qualified
refrigerators provide energy savings without sacrificing the
features you want.
Earning the ENERGY STAR
ENERGY STAR qualified refrigerator models use high efficiency
compressors, improved insulation, and more precise temperature
and defrost mechanisms to improve energy efficiency.
ENERGY STAR qualified refrigerator models use at least 15%
less energy than required by current federal standards and
40% less energy than the conventional models sold in 2001.
Many ENERGY STAR qualified refrigerator models include automatic
ice-maker and through-the-door ice dispensers. Qualified models
are also available with top, bottom, and side-by-side freezers.
CPI offers our customers a $25 rebate for the purchase
of an Energy Star Refrigerator.
