Energy Star®

A U.S. EPA and DOE program that certifies products meeting strict energy-efficiency criteria. HVAC units (like air conditioners, heat pumps, furnaces, and air handlers) that earn the Energy Star® label have demonstrated higher efficiency than standard models, saving energy and money. For example, an Energy Star® air conditioner must exceed a certain SEER rating. Buying Energy Star®-certified HVAC equipment assures you that the product is designed for efficiency.
