McHENRY 385-3120 Lighting, the electrical in dustry's first product, does i many wonderful things. It makes our home more at­ tractive whether you are inside or viewing it from outside. Whatever your Visual needs in the house--reading, studying, playing--lighting is a valuable aid. And it provides security against accidents Or prowlers. In these times of need for careful use of energy, lighting uses less than any other ap­ pliance--about one-sixth of all the electrical energy used ip But, although lighting is only a minor part of your electrical use, you still should use it wisely, through proper energy management. There are ways, you as an energy-conscious homeowner can become more efficient about the ways you use lighting, yet still get all the benefits it can provide. Although technical terms for energy often confuse many people, lighting terms are basically simple. The amount of light given off by a light bulb is measured in lumens, not wattage. Wattage measures the amount of energy needed to light a bulb. In other words, watts are to a bulb what gasoline is to a car--the power to make it go. Different cars using the same amount of gasoline give different per­ formances. So, different bulbs of the same wattage give dif­ ferent amounts of light. Each bulb package tells the bulbs' watts, lumens, and life span so it's easy to buy the bulb which will give you the amount of light you need For instance, higher wattage bulbs are generally more ef­ ficient per watt than smaller bulbs. Replacing several smaller bulbs with one larger one to light the same area, where practical, will mean a savings in energy. It takes six 25-watt in­ candescent bulbs to give about the same amount FORMAL WEAR RENTALS for ALL OCCASIONS th£ M Wl 1214 N. (.reen St..

STENSLAND A ASSOCIATES 3937 W^AAajnSt Ate MR. 385-7661 Mil it bulb, consider how you will use it. Buy the proper size bulb with the life span and brightness you need. Fluorescent lighting, where it can be used, is more economical than in- candescednt. Fluorescent lamps produce up to five times as much light for the same amount of energy and lasts up to ten times as long. A thr?e-way, or three-Ngfct, bulb can provide energy savings, if used properly. The highest, or brightest, position on the three-way switch should be used only when that much light is needed, such as for reading. The middle sep can be used when just general room illumination is needed. The bottom step can be used at night for safety. So-called "long'life" bulbs do not save electric energy. A 100- watt of this type bulb uses the same amount of energy as a 100-watt standard bulb--100 watts. While the longer-life bulb will give you 2,500 hours of use, and the standard bulb approximately 750 hours, the standard bulb has about 1,700 lumens light output, while the long-life emits about 1,470 lumens, or 20 percent less. You should decide whether you want a bulb that lasts longer, or one which gives more light for the same amount of energy. From the standpoint of use, the standard bulb is recom­ mended for most applications in the home--reading, studying, working. The long- life bulb is best for hard-to- reach places, such as the top of a stairwell, halls, closets, or ovehead lighting. Dimmers can also result in energy savings, since the light level on the lamp can be ad­ justed to the need. Whenever you turn down the light level you will be saving energy. Don't worry about the energy used by the dimmer. It's very small. One likely place for a dimmer is the dining room chandelier, which often has as many as ten light bulbs. When dining you rarely need the full light output of the bulbs. Reducing the amount of decorative lighting in your rooms will also save energy. And illuminate non-occupied areas only when required for security. The& tips from the Edison Electric institute should help you have all the lighting you need in your home, but at the same time will mark you as an energy-conscious homeowner.
