Nothing quite sets the mood like a dimmed light. This holiday season, Seattle electrician Mister Sparky is offering a Buy 3, Get 1 Free promotion on dimmer light switches. Aside from aesthetics, dimmer switches also have a number of other benefits.
Energy Efficiency
Aside from looking nice and creating a good environment, using a dimmer switch will save electricity. This is a great way to reduce bills and help reduce our countrys energy consumption. For example, dimming the halogen lights by 25% will reduce the annual energy bill by $ 17.30. Even set at the highest brightness, a dimmer switch uses about 5% less energy than a simple on/off switch. Additionally, dimming the light will send less energy to a halogen bulb, enabling it to last up to 20 times longer than a bulb controlled by a standard light-switch.
Dimmer switches are also future proof. Not only will dimmers work with traditional halogen blubs, they are also compatible with LED (Light Emitting Diode) and CFL (Compact Fluorescent Light) light bulbs.
