A government-backed program that labels energy-efficient products and shares tips for saving energy at home.
ENERGY STAR is a program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that helps consumers identify energy-efficient products. Its website lists product categories such as appliances, heating and cooling equipment, lighting and windows, and offers advice on saving energy and reducing costs. Homeowners in Nashville use it to compare appliances, lighting and other products when planning a kitchen, a remodel or a new home.
We are an independent firm and are not part of the program or the agency. We use its public information as one reference when we select appliances and lighting, alongside appearance, size, features and budget. For interiors, efficiency often shows up in lighting, kitchen and laundry appliances, windows and window treatments. We are glad to explain which choices matter most in your home and how to balance them with style and cost.
