- Most compact fluorescent bulbs last between 6,000 to 15,000 hours. Compare that to the 750 to 1,000 hours of a regular incandescent. These energy efficient fluorescent bulbs also supply the same amount of light as an incandescent but use much less power doing it. You'll buy bulbs much less often and save energy at the same time.
- Many people complain about the cost of the new compact fluorescent bulbs. However, because these bulbs use less power, they can each save you nearly $30 in the course of their average lifetime. Plus, because they burn cooler than incandescent lighting, you can cut energy costs related to home cooling. Change all the bulbs in your house to energy efficient ones, and you might just see your electric bill drop dramatically.
- Using compact fluorescent bulbs saves on energy consumption, which means they also reduce environmental effects of electric power generation. They help to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and other pollutants in the air.
