Room Air Conditioners

Purchase an ENERGY STAR® certified room air conditioner—and get a $40 rebate.

ENERGY STAR® certified room air conditioners help keep your home cool and save energy.

Room air conditioning units come in window and portable versions. ENERGY STAR® certified room air conditioners now save even more energy and money with better sealing and insulation materials that keep you cool and comfortable.

Paired with weatherization upgrades  (insulation and air sealing), upgrading heating and cooling equipment is one of the most effective ways to lower your energy use.
