Retailer offers major deals on eco-friendly
appliances
Earth Day on April 22 provides an opportunity to evaluate one’s
eco-footprint, and hhgregg (NYSE: HGG) – a leading appliance,
electronics and furniture retailer – is celebrating with
money-saving deals on the latest energy efficient appliances.
According to the Better Appliances report by the American Council
for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) and the Appliance Standards
Awareness Project (ASAP), newer appliances are not only more
performance efficient, they include a large number of new features
offering energy and utility efficiency to save families money over
time while older models increase utility bills.

“Many Americans do not realize that upgrading major appliances
results in significant energy efficiencies and can save families
hundreds of dollars each year on their bills,” explained Dennis
May, CEO of hhgregg. “In fact, clothes washers built in 2003 are
significantly less efficient than newer models. By upgrading to an
Energy Star product, families can save on average $230 a year.”
Now through April 25, hhgregg is making it easier than ever to
“go green” with up to 25 percent off of major appliances plus an
additional 5 percent off appliances, furniture and bedding $497 and
up with an hhgregg card. Thanks to hhgregg’s Laundry Savings Event,
not only are all washers and dryers on sale, but customers have a
chance to save an extra $50, $100 or $200 on laundry pair
purchases. For those who are unsure of the right eco products for
their homes, hhgregg’s award-winning sales team is at the ready to
explain the options and long-term savings.
Time to upgrade? Four questions to ask about large
appliances:
- Is the dishwasher in your home 10
years old? Families using a dishwasher made before 1994 are
paying an additional $35 per year on utility bills and using 1,600
more gallons of water on average over the product’s lifetime
compared to more recent models. By replacing these older products
with an Energy Star certified model, consumers could save enough
money to pay for detergent all year.*
- Did you buy your clothes washer
before 2003? Washers are the second largest water user in the
home and the average American family washes about 300 loads of
laundry each year. Washers built before 2003 are significantly less
efficient than newer models. By upgrading to an Energy Star
product, consumers can save on average $230 a year.*
- Is your clothes dryer Energy Star
certified? If all clothes dryers sold in the US were Energy
Star certified, Americans could save $1.5 billion each year in
utility costs and prevent greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to
more than 2 million vehicles.*
- New refrigerator on your list?
When it comes to residential refrigerators and freezers, the
Department of Energy’s energy conservation standards implemented in
2014 will save approximately 5.6 quads of energy and result in
approximately $97 billion in energy bill savings for products
shipped from 2014-2043. The standard will also avoid about 295
million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions, equivalent to the
annual greenhouse gas emissions of about 57.8 million
automobiles.**
“hhgregg understands that people care about the environment and
are looking for realistic ways to reduce their carbon-footprint
while spending within their means, which is why we are excited to
offer these great deals on the latest and greatest energy efficient
appliances to celebrate Earth Day,” May continued. “Aside from
saving shoppers up to hundreds of dollars per year in water and
energy bills, our top-of-the-line Energy Star appliances have the
ability to prevent billions of pounds of annual greenhouse gas
emissions.”
