Holiday decorating is a fun part of the season, but all those extra lights can really pack a punch on your power bill! What’s a decorator to do? Opt for LED holiday lights. LED's consume seventy five per cent less energy than traditional bulbs and because they emit less heat than traditional bulbs, using LED's reduces the risk of a home fire. LED's aren’t made of glass, so they’re less likely to break, and they last twenty five times longer than traditional bulbs.
You may have to spend a little more on LED holiday lights up front, but you’ll save money in the long run because you won’t have to replace them as often and you’ll see real savings on your holiday power bill. Invest in a timer for your holiday lighting display and save even more money! Set your timer to turn the lights on for the peak traffic times and off during the rest of the night and the daytime.
