Energy saving lighting and your health
Compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) contain very
small and safely contained amounts of mercury (as do the “traditional”
fluorescent tubes in wide use today). The use of mercury is required for any
fluorescent light bulbs, in order to radiate light. However, mercury is not
emitted and they are completely safe to use.
Common myths
about energy saving light bulbs.
1.
Myth
: Energy saving light bulbs will not fit in many lamps and fixtures.
Fact
: Many design offers a wide range of
very compact energy savers in various shapes
so that they fit in virtually any
lamps and fixtures.
2.
Myth:
Energy saving light bulbs radiate a
dull, pale light.
Fact : Energy savers radiate light with consistent high
quality, supporting the rich
colours of your home; when seeking extra sparking
light, opt for energy savers with clear bulbs, which include LED-based light
bulbs and halogen light bulbs.
3.
Myth:
CFL energy saving light bulbs take up to 5 minutes to reach full brightness.
Fact : CFL
energy savers provide high brightness within seconds - look for the Quick
Start
logo. In addition, all halogen and LED-based energy savers provide full
brightness instantly.
4. Myth: Not
all energy saving light bulbs can be used with common home dimmer
switches.
Fact :
It offers a wide range of dimmable
energy savers, including CFL and LED-based
light
bulbs. All halogen based energy savers dim exactly like incandescent light
bulbs. Be sure you check the information on the packaging for details.
If we change our “traditional” light bulbs to energy saving
bulb use less and save more it also prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the
emissions more than 800,000 cars. Our bulbs use up to 75% less energy than incandescent
bulbs, which is not only better for the planet, but your account as well.
