Lighting
Whether you are getting ready to re-design the lighting in your home, or you just want to start cutting down on your energy cost, the type of lighting can make a big difference. Before you start, sign up for a Home Energy Audit with Energy Check. We will work with you and your contractor to help you figure out where to start, and prioritize the lighting improvements that help you meet your design and efficiency needs.
Did you know, by replacing the bulbs in the five most frequently used light fixtures in your home with ENERGY STAR qualified models, you can save $70 each year in energy costs? If every American home replaced just one light with a light that's earned the ENERGY STAR, we would save enough energy to light 3 million homes for a year, save about $600 million in annual energy costs, and prevent 9 billion pounds of greenhouse gas emissions per year, equivalent to those from about 800,000 cars. ENERGY STAR qualified lighting provides bright, warm light, using at least 75% less energy than standard lighting, generates 75% less heat, & lasts up to 10 times longer.
