  • Recently, the ENERGY STAR program for Commercial Ovens V 3.0 went into effect. This new version, 3.0, requires even more demanding consumption values to be achieved – particularly for electric units. These new standards require higher efficiency cooking, lower idle rates, and even less water consumption. RATIONAL took this opportunity to further improve the energy efficiency and water consumption of our cooking systems. This means that we not only meet, but exceed the new requirements.

    With this, additional unit sizes have now been added to the scope of certified models. We now have ENERGY STAR certification for the iCombi Pro XS and the iCombi Pro 20-full size electric. This is due to the new specifications that allow for electric combi ovens with pan capacity greater than 20 hotel pans and 2/3 size pans to be eligible.

    ENERGY STAR is one of the few globally recognized certifications for high energy efficiency, certified by independent institutes.
