Tips for Saving Money on Lighting
1 New screw-in fluorescent bulbs can replace the incandescent ones most of us use. Fluorescent bulbs are more expensive initially, but they last 10 times longer and use 75% less electricity.
2 If you prefer incandescent bulbs, try to use “energy saver” bulbs. These bulbs use halogen gases that allow the filament to burn brighter while consuming less electricity.
3 Match as closely as possible light bulb wattage to lighting needs.
4 Inside your home, lighting controls or timers can help save energy.
5 Keeping lights and fixtures clean can improve efficiency as much as 20%.
