This list based on the 2014 CEE Residential Refrigerator Specification. Key • Asterisks(*) indicate that a coding variable may be used in place of the asterisks to indicate a color or feature that does not affect efficiency • Red italics indicate that a product has been discontinued. Discontinued models are no longer manufactured, but may still be available in the marketplace. • Blue italics indicate a US-only model. • Green italics indicate a Canada-only model. • Orange italics indicate an icemaker ready model.

Please click here for a list of models which meet Tier 1 specifications Please click here for a list of models which meet Tier 2 specifications Please click here for a list of models which meet Tier 3 specifications How this list is generated: Manufacturers submit energy use data to CEE for each model as determined by test procedures set by the US Department of Energy. Models are placed in the tier appropriate to their energy use. Tier eligibility is determined by calculating the percentage of product performance over the Federal Standard, rounded to the nearest whole percent. CEE does not verify manufacturer data, but does require manufacturers to submit data consistent with what they report to the US Department of Energy. Based on the increased scrutiny by the US Department of Energy and certification and verification process implemented by the US Environmental Protection Agency, you may wish to cross-reference the models listed against the ENERGY STAR® qualified product list.

  • Independent of the Sun Light, Energy & the American Home, 1913-1933 a Whole-House Exhibit at the Trail End State Historic Site, March 2007 - December 2007
    Independent of the Sun Light, Energy & the American Home, 1913-1933 A Whole-House Exhibit at the Trail End State Historic Site, March 2007 - December 2007 Homeowners today take light, power and heat for granted, regardless of the time of day or month of the year. Prior to the advent of electricity and gas, however, humankind’s activities were largely constrained by the rising and setting of the sun, the time of which changed depending upon the season. It became science’s challenge to find a way to extend the light of day into the dark of night. “Back in the days when flickering candles and smoky lamps were the only means of lighting, men were striving to make themselves independent of the sun.” Better Homes & Gardens, 1927 Through careful study of period magazines, books and newspapers, and drawing upon the expertise of more modern researchers, Independent of the Sun seeks to show how the coming of electricity changed the American home in ways unimaginable to those who first fiddled with its powers. Illustrations are from the variety of period magazines donated to Trail End over the years. The Sun of Our Home Thanks to the efforts of Thomas Alva Edison, electricity first entered a select number of American homes in 1882 (Britain beat us by a few months, introducing electrical power to a INDEPENDENT OF THE SUN - 1 - WWW.TRAILEND.ORG small town in Surrey in late 1881). By 1913, just over sixteen percent of America’s urban homes had electric service. By the early 1930s, that number had risen to over 85 percent.
