Put energy savings on the front burner with rebates on energy-saving ENERGY STAR® commercial kitchen equipment. You’ll reduce energy costs, improve performance, and because many energy-saving options produce less heat, you might also reduce your cooling costs.
Save Over $1000 a Year by Upgrading to ENERGY STAR Products
Rebates available through the Connecticut Energy Efficiency Fund allow you to step up to high-efficiency equipment without a premium price. Finding the right energy-saving equipment is easy. We work with ENERGY STAR to find the most energy-efficient technologies available.
ENERGY STAR estimates you can save over $1,000 a year by upgrading your steamers to qualified units. And we offer rebates of $750 and $1,125 to save you even more. We also offer rebates for ENERGY STAR certified refrigerators, freezers, ice machines, food holding cabinets, dishwashers, convection ovens, fryers and griddles.
Commercial kitchens are busy places that produce a lot of heat. Convection ovens, steamers, fryers and even refrigerators and ice machines produce excess heat. With new ENERGY STAR certified commercial kitchen equipment, you can lower your energy costs and reduce some of this excess heat.
Applying is easy. Check the application on your utility’s website for details about qualifying equipment. For more information, visit the ENERGY STAR website.
Make the smart – and cool – choice to upgrade your appliances now.
