Electrolux models receive ETL listing

UK: Three lines from Electrolux Professional’s Ecostore range refrigerators have been added to the Energy Technology List (ETL).

Two of the manufacturer’s Ecostore Premium HPe models (ESP71FRCAAG & ESP71FFCHPAG), alongside the Ecostore HPe line (RE471FFCG), have joined the government-backed list, which features over 14,000 independently verified energy efficient products.

The Ecostore HPe line holds both a climate class 5 rating and energy efficiency class A rating. This is based on the ratio between the appliance’s energy consumption of 299kWh per annum and the net 503-litre capacity of a standard full door cabinet.

Electrolux Professional has reiterated its own support for the energy-efficient appliances by upgrading its warranty provision from two to five years, with every new purchase of a HPe Premium cabinet or HPe single door cabinet.

“The ETL accreditation truly reveals the progress we have made in driving energy efficiency across all aspects of the business,” commented Electrolux Professional UK & Ireland’s foodservice partner sales manager Alex Reed.

Electrolux Professional’s Ecostore range is said to ensure optimal food preservation thanks to its OptiFlow intelligent air circulation system, which adapts to the refrigerator’s load for optimal cooling results and temperature uniformity.
