Why switch to LED?

As individuals become increasingly aware of their homes’ energy consumption levels, switching from traditional incandescent to LED light bulbs simply makes sense. By consuming approximately 85% less electricity with a lifespan of up to 20 times longer than their incandescent counterparts, LED bulbs will save you money while helping to save the environment at the same time.

It’s all in the numbers

Based on five hours of use per day at 11¢/kwh, one 60-watt incandescent bulb amounts to $12.04 for the average user every year. Considering how many bulbs there are in a single house, those numbers can really add up! On the other hand, a 60-watt equivalent LED bulb only amounts to $1.81 through  the same time frame when based on the same usage amounts.

Make the switch and start saving today!

LED Efficiency

Lumens: A lumen (lm) is the unit used to measure the brightness of a light source. The higher the lumens, the brighter the light. Lumens are the best way to determine whether a bulb will provide you with the brightness you are looking for.

LED Longevity

The Colour of Light

The Correlated Colour Temperature (CCT) is measured in Kelvin (K) and defines whether a light appears:

LED Key Benefits

  • Long Life - most LED bulbs will last at least 25,000 hours, that equates to more than 20 years of regular use.
  • Energy Efficient - switching to LED bulbs will instantly save you money on your monthly hydro bill. 10% of the average hydro bill is made up of lighting costs. LED bulbs consume about 80% less energy than standard incandescent bulbs.
  • Eco-Friendly - LED lights are free of toxic chemicals. Most conventional fluorescent light bulbs contain an array of chemicals, including mercury, that are harmful to the environment.
  • Durable - since LED bulbs are not sensitive to hot or cold temperature, they can be used indoors and out. They are resistant to vibration and shock.
