Member Information: Save energy with smarter lighting choices

Save energy with smarter lighting choices

When choosing bulbs for your home, don’t just pay attention to watts—look at lumens as well, which measure the brightness. (Watts = energy consumed, and lumens = brightness)
Careful selection of lumens for each space in your home makes all the difference. Choose bright, focused light for kitchens and workspaces and warm, softer light for bedrooms and living rooms. 
This balance not only improves comfort and function, but it can also help you save energy.
