How to Identify an Energy-efficient
Entry Door
You know you have purchased an energy-efficient door if it has the ENERGY
STAR label. Qualified doors and windows meet strict energy-efficiency
standards, including:
• The product must contribute significant energy savings
nationwide.
• Qualified products must deliver the features and
performance demanded by consumers, in addition to
increased energy efficiency.
• If the qualified product costs more than a
conventional, less-efficient counterpart, purchasers will
recover their investment in increased energy efficiency
through utility bill savings, within a reasonable period of
time.
• Product energy consumption and performance can be
measured and verified with testing.
