Samsung Electronics announced on the 6th that it will provide various additional benefits to customers purchasing high-efficiency home appliances in line with the government's 'Top Efficiency Home Appliance Rebate Program.'
The government has implemented a program that refunds 10% of the purchase price when purchasing the highest-rated energy-efficient home appliances. Starting from the 4th, customers can apply for the refund by purchasing eligible models and entering the ▲energy efficiency grade label ▲manufacturing number (serial number) plate ▲transaction record ▲purchase receipt on the Korea Energy Agency (KEA) website. The program will end once the budget limit is exhausted.
Samsung Electronics plans to provide detailed guidance on everything from purchasing top efficiency products at Samsung stores nationwide to photographing energy efficiency labels, product plates, and issuing purchase certification documents before applying for the actual refund.
Samsung Electronics has over 450 top efficiency home appliances, including refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, and TVs. Among large 85-inch TVs, Samsung Electronics is the only brand eligible for a rebate. Additionally, the QLED promotional model among top efficiency TVs offers an additional 100,000 points.
Samsung Electronics provides additional benefits for customers purchasing top efficiency home appliances. At Samsung stores, up to 10% of the retail price of special event models for top efficiency home appliances will be given as Samsung Electronics membership points. Furthermore, Samsung.com also offers up to 10% discount coupons for specific models among top efficiency home appliances.
There is also an 'AI package' that provides up to 50,000 Samsung Electronics membership points per item when purchasing two or more AI home appliances. Customers who purchase the 'AI package' that includes models such as ▲energy efficiency grade 1 ▲refrigerators, kimchi refrigerators ▲air conditioners ▲washing and drying machines will receive an additional 50,000 points. When including ▲air purifiers ▲dishwashers, an additional 30,000 points are awarded.
A representative from Samsung Electronics stated, "Our top efficiency home appliances not only have an energy consumption efficiency grade of 1 but also support the SmartThings-based 'AI savings mode' that maximizes energy savings, allowing users to save additional energy. This feature efficiently manages energy consumption by analyzing usage patterns and can reduce power consumption by up to 60%, depending on the product."
Kim Yong-hoon, the country manager for Samsung Electronics in Korea, said, "In line with the purpose of accelerating the expansion of high-efficiency home appliance use in daily life, we provide various purchasing benefits. I hope customers will find Samsung's top efficiency home appliances, which not only have an energy consumption efficiency grade of 1 but also the 'AI savings mode,' at a more reasonable price."
