Energy Saving Compact Fluorescent Lights
One of the best ways to save money on your lighting bill is to switch from standard incandescent light bulbs to compact fluorescent light bulbs.
- the same warm, friendly light you are accustomed to getting from standard incandescent bulbs used in any standard fixture
- saves money and cuts way down on energy use, contributing to a healthier environment.
- last much longer than incandescent bulbs, so they won't need to be replaced as often. They are great for hard-to-reach places like high ceilings or porch lights
Save Energy
Compact fluorescent light bulbs use less energy than standard incandescent light bulbs.
Save Money
By replacing just one 75-watt incandescent light bulb with a 20-watt CFL, you will save money on your lighting bill.
Energy consumed is measured in watts x time kilowatt-hours. A 20 watt light bulb consumes 20 watts of power. If you keep it fully on for 1,000 hours it will consume 20 watts x 1,000 hour, or 20 kilowatt-hours. But its watt rating alone will not tell you how much energy it can consume.
Save the Planet
Choose compact fluorescent and reduce pollution created by operation of electrical power plants.
Compact fluorescent lamps last longer, that means fewer burned-out bulbs in the landfill.
Consider the long-term savings on your electricity bill, plus the environmental benefits of cutting energy use. Switching to compact fluorescent lighting is a simple, direct way to benefit yourself and the environment!
Replace your incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescents and start conserving today!
- longer life, great for hard to reach fittings,
- fit most standard light fittings,
- range of light output colors. The higher the Kelvin (color temperature) rating, the brighter and whiter the light. Choose a CFL rated near 3000K for a warm look similar to an incandescent light bulb.
- silent, fluorescent lighting technology has improved, eliminating the flickering and humming you may have noticed with fluorescents in the past.
