Energy Saving Lighting

The kitchen is often one of the most used rooms in the house and needs effective lighting in the right places to make the kitchen both inviting and a pleasure to work in.

Different types of lighting are used in the different areas to make the kitchen a place to enjoy spending time in and to create the different moods needed for working, dining or relaxing in the kitchen.

Efficient lighting will help to make the room safer, hygienic and a more pleasant environment to work in. Good lighting enables easier cleaning of worktops and reduces stress on the eyes.

The kitchen is often the focal point of the home and has so many uses these days apart from just cooking. It is used for entertaining, relaxing, a room the children can do their home work in, or the family can be watching television while the meal is being cooked. By blending a range of task, accent and ambient lighting you will create a kitchen that is multi functional.

Our range of energy saving lighting not only looks as good as conventional lighting but the light given out is comparable to that of conventional lighting.

With energy consumption increasing and new legislation restricting wasteful electrical output, many consumers are realising the benefits of switching to energy saving lighting. New legislation such as part L of the building regulations is encouraging a switch to energy efficiency.

The key benefits of energy efficient lighting are:-

Longer lamp life

Many energy saving products utilise LED technology which offers up to 30,000 hours lamp life. This is up to ten times longer than standard halogen bulbs.

Reduced Costs

It is well worth changing any lighting in your kitchen over to energy saving lighting wherever possible. Energy saving products use less watts of power and therefore reduce running costs. This will not only save your energy consumption but save you money in the long term, an even better reason to save energy.

For a detailed cost comparison, please see the 50W versus 10W comparison below.

Cost Comparison

50 watt lamp Running costs per year – 10 lights @ 6 hours per day = £164.25

10 watt lamp Running costs per year – 10 lights @ 6 hours per day = £32.85

Total saving per year - £131.40

As you can see notable savings can be made even with a small number of lamps.
