One way is that if you are building a house, equipping rental units, or just buying an appliance, you may want to buy equipment that will produce the least amount of pollution.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) helps us do this by identifying elite produces with its ENERGY STAR Most Efficient 2018 distinction that rewards models that advance innovative technologies for energy efficiency. Products that are specified include:

• Refrigerators.
