Rational partners with ENERGY STAR

Feb. 12, 2014, Mississauga, ON – Rational has
joined EPA’s ENERGY STAR program as an ENERGY STAR partner. 

Rational is only one
of two combination oven manufacturers that is an ENERGY STAR partner. Rational’s focus on sustainability has
allowed its Whitefficiency SelfCookingCenter
units to earn the ENERGY STAR.

Compared to standard equipment, ENERGY STAR
certified combination ovens are on average roughly 30 per cent more efficient,
reported Rational in a prepared statement. The company says this means
that they have an estimated annual savings of $250 (gas models) and $700
(electric models), save roughly 28 MBTU per year or 7,121 kWh per year and have
a lifetime savings of $2,500 (gas models) and $6,800 (electric models), which
is based on 12-year life and four per cent discount (actual savings will vary
depending on use).

program for commercial ovens, you can visit their website.
