I quick survey of my heating, water, and electricity bills shows me exactly what the previous month was like in our household. I know if it was a particularly cold or warm month, if I spent way too long in the shower trying to alleviate the stress and busyness of my life, and whether or not my kids have forgotten to “be green” by turning off lights.
The Cost of Aging Appliances
It’s Earth Month, and while I do believe our family does a good job of conserving the resources we’ve been given, we can always do more. One often overlooked way to maximize your energy and dollar savings is with your refrigerator. Did you know that ENERGY STAR certified refrigerators are approximately 10 percent more energy efficient than current models that meet the federally-mandated energy efficiency standard? With the average age of a family’s refrigerator approximately 10 years old, the energy cost of these aging appliances in the US exceeds $4.7 billion.
Save Money While Reducing Your Carbon Footprint
Just in time for Earth Month, Best Buy and LG have introduced a new line of ENERGY STAR rated appliances, inspired by Nate Berkus. The LG Studio Collection is characterized by pro-style features such as hefty metal knobs and flat doors. The refrigerator, in particular, features a horizontally brushed stainless steel finish, a flat-door design and an all-metal tall ice and water dispenser. By properly recycling and replacing your refrigerator, you’ll save money while helping to protect the environment. Over the lifetime of your new ENGERY STAR certified refrigerator, you’ll save $35-300 on energy costs. Plus, if all refrigerators sold in the US were ENERGY STAR certified, the savings would grow to over $400 million each year and $8 billion pounds of annual greenhouse gas emissions would be prevented (equivalent to emissions from 750,000 vehicles)
