ENERGY STAR qualified dehumidifiers provide the same features as conventional models— moisture removal, quiet operation, and durability— but ENERGY STAR dehumidifiers are more energy efficient.
Often used in the damp areas of your home, such as basements, dehumidifiers remove moisture from the air to maintain comfort and to limit the growth of mold and mildew. A non-qualified dehumidifier can use as much electricity as a conventional refrigerator, which consumes more energy than most other products in the home!
ENERGY STAR qualified dehumidifiers operate at least 10 percent more efficiently than conventional models. Depending on the size of the dehumidifier, you can save up to $300 on your electricity bills over the 12-year lifetime of an ENERGY STAR qualified unit.
Check to see if pricing discounts or mail-in rebates are available on qualified dehumidifiers.
