What’s the first thing you notice when you enter a room? Is it the television? The furniture? How about the lighting? Well, without light, the answer would be none of the above, but with beautiful fixtures and dimmer switches, lighting can really make a statement in any room of the house.
What are dimmer switches and why do they matter? This type of light switch controls the brightness of a lighting fixture by adjusting the amount of voltage received by the fixture. Whether you’re looking to set the mood with a dimly lit room, or need maximum brightness for reading or performing certain tasks, a dimmer switch makes it all possible.
But there’s more to it than simply being able to adjust the brightness of a light. Dimmer switches save energy. By dimming a light, you can save nearly 98% of its energy and upwards of 10% on energy bills. Nice, right?
In addition to saving on energy bills, dimmer switches also help extend the longevity of your light bulbs. Instead of a bulb burning out after 5 - 6 months, dimmers can help them last 3 - 4 years or longer, depending on the bulb type.
So, what are you waiting for? Hop aboard the smart lighting train and start saving today! Contact the experts at ABC to find out how we can help and don’t forget to connect with us on Facebook!
