Technological Advances

ENERGY STAR certified freezers offer high performance features such as:

  • High-efficiency compressors - ENERGY STAR certified freezers have high- efficiency compressors that create less heat when they are running, use less energy and are often quieter than standard compressors.
  • Improved insulation - Improved insulation located in doors and exterior walls helps food stay cold and muffles noise.
  • Temperature and defrost mechanisms - More precise temperature and defrost mechanisms help the freezer operate more efficiently, while ensuring food is kept at the optimum temperature.
  • Improved design - Better design of gaskets and doors reduces heat leakage into freezers that occurs around door edges. The addition of certain valves can prevent refrigerant migration and bring substantial energy savings.
  • High-efficiency evaporators - Enhanced evaporator performance helps decrease energy consumption.
  • Get the latest features. Many ENERGY STAR certified freezers have innovative compartment designs, such as removable lift-out bins, slide-out baskets, and glass shelving, to help you organize frozen goods.
