Benefits of LED Lighting in Your Home

In order to get a feel for how your home can benefit from LED lighting, start small.  Try swapping a regular bulb on your porch and enjoying a nice evening outside to really see the difference in brightness.  Next, try switching out an incandescent bulb in a ceiling fan, accent light, or lamp.  Chances are you’ll first notice a change in your environment and then your electric bill.  A regular 40 Watt bulb, for example, burns through a lot more energy than it needs to produce the light you use.  A large percentage of the energy that goes into a 40 Watt bulb is wasted as heat; making them poor tools when it comes to conserving electricity and saving money.  LED bulbs, generate very little heat when they glow, instead transferring most of their energy directly into light.

LED light bulbs bring a white light into a room. Unlike the yellow light we're so used to seeing from incandescent bulbs, the white light cast by LEDs is closer to the color temperature of daylight.  The white light of LEDs is easier on your eyes and also provides the added benefit of lifting your mood in the summer and winter time.  There are many uses for LED lights in your home.  Use an LED light bulb in a task or reading light, and you'll have a bright, white light to work by.  LEDs not only produce light more efficiently, they have a tiny mirror that reflects light in one direction.  A directed light means less wasted light.  LEDs don’t waste light on areas you don’t need illuminated, which is why they are perfect lights for tasks.  Ceiling cans (or recessed lighting) have become one of the most common styles of lighting for homes in the U.S.  They are typically installed in groups simply for symmetry.  Ceiling cans are an ideal place for LED light bulbs.
