Energy Star is a voluntary government program administered by the U.S. Environmental Agency (EPA) that gives homeowners the opportunity to save more than 30% in energy costs and the power to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gases through energy efficiency.
Did you know that the typical home causes more greenhouse gas emissions than a typical car? Homes use energy produced by power plants that emit pollutants, so the less energy used, the less pollution emitted. Energy-efficient homes that qualify as Energy Star are good for builders, homeowners, and the environment.
