Beginning Jan. 1, 2012, residential Members who have an energy audit performed on their homes are eligible to receive up to $50 worth of compact flourescent lamps (CFLs) to be used in their most frequently used fixtures.   CFLs present a significant opportunity for energy and maintenance savings. On a per lamp basis, compact fluorescent lamps are generally 75 percent more efficient than incandescent bulbs and last up to ten times longer. Per ENERGY STAR®, CFLs produce about 75 percent less heat, so they are safer to operate and can cut energy costs associated with home cooling. CFLs vary in size and shape. Their appearance can be a spiral-shaped fluorescent tube or they can appear as a standard shape, such as the R-30 floodlight used in recessed cans.  Ceiling fan bulbs and globes are also eligible.   Book your home energy audit today to discuss your home's CFL needs or call us at (940) 270-6860.

“CFLs are the most efficient light bulbs on the market today. We have witnessed a $20-$25 decrease on our electric bill every month since we changed to CFLs. That’s quite an annual savings—almost $300 by simply changing out our light bulbs.” —Reuben Evans, McKinney
