Ventilation Fans
For PartnersWhy ENERGY STAR?
ENERGY STAR certified ventilation fans:
- use about 48% less energy than standard models.
- provide better efficiency and comfort with less noise.
- feature high performance motors and improved blade design, providing better performance and longer life.
Installing adequate ventilation helps to alleviate many common household problems. It also helps to control moisture and remove objectionable odors.
If all residential ventilation fans sold in the United States were ENERGY STAR certified, the energy cost savings would grow to $300 million each year, and 3.4 billion pounds of annual greenhouse gas emissions would be prevented, equivalent to the emissions from nearly 330,000 vehicles.
