Wise buying has always been in-vogue
from time immemorial, but other considerations such as carbon footprints are
fairly recent when it comes to buying considerations. The motto for discerning
shoppers today is, ‘save your wallet and the environment!’, and there is no
better way to start acting responsibly than buying efficient home appliances.
Refrigerator design took a giant leap ever since the agreement between the US,
China and India in 2015 to lower the use of ozone depleting HFCs. Energy Star
is the mark of cutting edge consumer products that are manufactured according
to latest innovations and deliver unmatched energy efficiency. Aldahome Appliances, a refrigerator dealer
serving Delhi and Noida, gives you amazing deals on a range of refrigerators
that meet different energy star ratings and budgets. Here is a sneak peek at
what constitutes an energy efficient refrigerator and some options that you can
grab today.
Why energy efficiency matters
Apart from environmental concerns,
unchecked energy usage drains the finances of most home owners and even
businesses by way of bills. When to it comes to households, the refrigerator’s
typical energy consumption is roughly 13.7 percent of your total energy bill. This
makes it worthwhile to explore avenues to bring down your energy bill, and in
the process, lower your carbon footprint. That is why energy efficient and cost
effective refrigerators are popular among discerning consumers.
Where does the energy go?
The vast amount of energy consumed by
a refrigerator serves to drive heat out of the cabinet. The rest goes towards
defrosting, keeping away sweat, and illumination. Refrigerator efficiency is
derived from the energy used as per given size and is expressed in terms of
volume cooled per unit electric energy per day. Power is measured in kilowatt
hours whereas volume is in cubic feet.
