Buy an Air Conditioner with a Deep Discount

An efficient air conditioner will almost pay for itself in energy savings.
Upgrading to a new Energy Star qualified room air conditioner can save you money-enough over time to pay for a good chunk of the price of the appliance itself.

If you use a room air conditioner (instead of central air) and your unit is more than 10 years old, consider replacing it with a new Energy Star rated room air conditioner. You'll use at least 10 percent less energy than a standard new model-a savings of about $125 over the lifetime of the unit.

Energy Star qualified room air conditioners often include more sophisticated temperature controls that allow you to minimize your energy use as you cool your room.

If all households that currently use standard room air conditioners eventually replaced them with one that is Energy Star rated, the annual energy saved could power the energy needs of every home in Dallas for an entire summer.
