Let CFLs Light Up Your Night, Not Your Electric Bill
Compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) are a great way to improve lighting around your house, use less electricity and save on your energy bill. Here are some fast facts about CFLs:
ENERGY STAR® CFLs use about 75 percent less energy than standard incandescent bulbs and last up to 10 times longer.
Just one CFL can save $30 in energy costs over the life of the bulb.
CFLs produce 75 percent less heat, making them safer to the touch. That also means less work for your air conditioner, saving more energy and money.
CFLs perform best in open fixtures that allow airflow, such as table and floor lamps, wall sconces, hanging lamps and outdoor fixtures.
CFLs now come in many different sizes and shapes for bathroom vanities, ceiling fan light fixtures and decorative fixtures.
