SHINE A LIGHT ON ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The federal government recently enacted a law that requires light bulbs to become three times more efficient by 2020. Since LED bulbs are the only ones able to meet this standard and far exceed incandescent bulbs on energy efficiency and longevity, they will replace all incandescent light bulbs in the next year.
THE BENEFITS
LED bulbs use 75% less energy and last 25 times longer than incandescent bulbs, reducing utility and maintenance costs.
1
While LED bulbs lower energy usage and maintenance costs, smart LED bulbs give residents more control over their homes. Smart lighting features technology like motion sensors, voice control, changing colors or brightness and smartphone control.
2
Smart LED lighting technology can also support wellness features like circadian lighting preferences. The International WELL Building Institute highlights lighting as a main driver for circadian rhythms. With the wellness real estate industry at $134 billion in 2017 and forecasted to continue growing, it's smart to invest in upgrades that support wellness.
