If you’ve been shopping e-conolight
for any amount of time, chances are you’ve encountered the DLC and ENERGY STAR badges on a few products. But
… do you know what they mean?
Both the DLC and ENERGY STAR badges help customers identify quality and long-lasting products for commercial (DLC) and residential (ENERGY STAR) applications.
DLC (Design Lights Consortium)
is well-known in commercial circles for lighting products primarily used outside.
Receiving the DLC certification is not an easy process; benchmarks for quality are tough to meet, and only items that go through rigorous third-party testing to meet those marks get qualified. For example, many fixtures must operate at 70 percent lumen maintenance or above for a minimum of 50,000 hours and offer a five-year warranty.
Customers who choose DLC-certified light fixtures for their commercial application are also eligible for utility rebates in many states.*
ENERGY STAR rates indoor residential items including lighting and appliances.
Products that qualify for the ENERGY
STAR badge are also tested by approved third-party facilities. Those that
meet ENERGY STAR standards for pollution reduction and increased energy cost
savings receive the distinctive blue badge.
Residential customers can also take advantage of utility company rebates in several states when they purchase ENERGY STAR appliances for their homes.*
