ENERGY STAR is a government-backed program helping businesses and individuals protect the environment through the use of high-efficiency products.
-
Started by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1992, ENERGY STAR began as a voluntary labeling program designed to identify and promote energy-efficient products to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
-
Pella has partnered with ENERGY STAR since 1999.
-
Most Pella windows and doors meet ENERGY STAR performance guidelines when glazed with Low-E insulating glass.
-
Pella's commitment to ENERGY STAR extends to product design, testing, consumer education, sales, marketing, public outreach, product labeling, specification development, and training.
-
The ENERGY STAR label is featured on major appliances, office equipment, lighting and home electronics, in addition to quality windows and doors.
-
EPA also has extended the program to include new homes and commercial and industrial buildings.
By choosing ENERGY STAR qualified products, the typical household can save up to 30% on its energy bills – more than $600 per year – while improving home comfort and helping the environment.
