Cut Your Electricity Bills With Energy Saving Light Bulbs

Did you know that inefficient light bulbs are being phased out by the government and retailers

? This is excellent news for anyone who pays an electricity bill; which is most of us. I myself am a landlord; I let out sixteen properties in the North East of England to students. So you can imagine how many light bulbs I go through.

Because I let to students I make my rent all inclusive - I've had too many problems with unpaid bills! So now I pay all the bills and add it into their rent. I think the students look for the 'simplest' way to rent and that is all inclusive; even though part of me thinks that they should be old enough to pay a bill themselves!

My electricity bills are massive; thousands of pounds a year, and there is no sign of them going down anytime soon. That's why I decided to have a clean sweep on all my properties and change all the light bulbs over to energy efficient light bulbs. It took me two days and I had to buy one thousand energy saving bulbs (which I got as a bulk buy discount) but it was very much worth it. I worked out that on a thousand bulbs I am saving two and a half grand a year. I mean, that is a phenomenal saving.

Changing to energy efficient bulbs was definitely the right thing for me to do in my properties, but even though I have seventeen properties I am small-time, the letting agencies have thousands of homes on their books and it made me wonder if they have done the same - and if they haven't why not? It's madness not to.

Then there are other businesses, factories, shops, super markets - I hope they are doing it to. The fact that they are phasing out inefficient bulbs is excellent news for all of us, but there is no point waiting until we can't buy inefficient bulbs anymore - get out the house now, buy yourenergy saving lightbulbs and make the change.

Conclusion

Even if you don't own lots of properties - whether you rent, own or whatever - if you pay an electricity bill there is no reason for you to using inefficient light bulbs. Make the change and you'll be saving money and the environment.
