Facts & Stats

More than 60 million refrigerators and freezers in the U.S. are over 10 years old, costing consumers $4.4 billion a year in energy costs

That second older refrigerator can cost $1,000 per year to run depending on size and age!

Getting rid of inefficient appliances has environmental benefits too, recycling one fridge/freezer can prevent up to 10,000 pounds of carbon pollution from being released.**
