subject: Save Energy And Your Money At The Same Time [print this page] In todays economy we need to find ways to reduce our energy consumption and our cost of daily living.
"How can I reduce my energy bill?"
"How can I combat Global Warming?"
"How do I reduce my dependence on fossil fuels?"
Let our experts show you how you can do these things. And you can start today!
Simply changing your incandescent light bulbs to CFL's sets you on the right track. Yes, you can make a big difference. Here's the whole story in one sentence!
Incandescent light bulbs use 75% more energy than Compact Florescent Light Bulbs(CFL's).
If every household in the U.S. replaced just ONE incandescent light bulb with an energy efficient compact fluorescent light bulb, it would eliminate the equivalent of the emissions created by one million cars. And that's only one bulb per household! Most homes have 15-30 bulbs. Imagine eliminating the pollution of one million cars
It is easy to save money on your electric bill, reduce pollution, and make a difference in the future of our planet, by simply using CFL bulbs for your lighting needs.
You can now get three way and dimming CFL's also.
Electricity use produces heat. The formula is 1 watt produces 3.414 BTUs/Hour. So every electrical consumption item in your home is producing 3.414 BTUs of heat times its rated wattage.
A 100 watt incandescent bulb produces 341 BTU of heat each hour. On a day when your air conditioner is used, it must combat 341 BTUs times every hour, times every 100 watt bulb burning in your home.
By the way did you know the human body produces the same amount of heat per hour on average, as a 100 watt light bulb?
Ever burn your hand trying to change a light bulb? CFL's are cool to the touch while burning. A 26 watt CFL provides the light of a 100 watt incandescent bulb.
You can see how much energy is wasted by common lighting products and we all need to find economical ways for making the switch toward better energy and future for our children. Using CFL lighting is one of the quickest and easiest steps you can take to reduce your energy consumption, the drain on your budget, and work toward a better environment.
There are many other ways to reduce your energy costs. We provide expert information and evaluation on our website.
We challenge you to begin today, by changing at least one light bulb in your home to a CFL, and hopefully more.
