Why recommend products?

The marketplace can be very confusing. with so many products and promotions shouting for your attention. It is often difficult to know which ones to choose. Now. with the arrival of Energy Efficiency Recommended, you will find it easier to make an informed choice.

Remember that although energy efficient appliances may cost a little more to buy,they cost less to run. They will almost always work out cheaper over their lifetime. Also, using less energy reduces carbon dioxide emissions, helping to combat climate change.

Working closely with manufacturers and retailers, the Energy Saving Trust aims to phase out inefficient products and replace them with highly efficient alternatives.

Remember. Whenever you buy household appliances - think Energy Efficiency Recommended.
