Going Green for the Holidays!

The choices you make regarding power consumption affect both your home energy costs and the environment.

 

What LEDs mean to you and the environment.

- Uses roughly 90% less electric power compared to incandescent Christmas lights
- Operates at only 1 degree warmer than room temp making it cool to the touch
- Pay for themselves in a few years of use.
- Less service calls - Durable - Virtually unbreakable

 

Sustainable resource consumption is everyone’s responsibility. Choosing energy-efficient lighting is an easy way to save money on power. The choice is up to you.

What are LED (light-emitting diode) lights?

According to www.wikipedia.org an LED is a semiconductor diode that emits incoherent narrow-spectrum light when electrically biased in the forward direction of the p-n junction, as in the common LED circuit. This effect is a form of electroluminescence.

What does that mean?

An LED is a semiconductor diode that emits a light when a tiny electric current passes through a layer of specially treated material. 

On average an average roofline replacing 210 standard incandescent C9 bulbs with LEDs equates to Planting 456 trees Conserving 3,822 Kilowatts of Electricity Reducing 5,924 lbs of Co2
