Energy Saving
Tips:
DID YOU KNOW?
Indoor Lighting: Switch on efficiency with CFLs to save you energy and money.. Incandescent
light bulbs are the least efficiency type of light bulb.
Compact fluorescent lights (CFLs) use about 75% less energy than a standard incandescent
light bulb and last 10 times longer. Each CFL saves $35 in electricity cost over its lifetime.
If every household in Canada changed just one incandescent light bulb
to an ENERGY STAR® qualified CFL, it would reduce greenhouse gas emissions
as much as taking 66,000 cards off the road. Information
