Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs (CFLs)
Bulbs.com  
Our recommendations:

  • Make sure to purchase light bulbs with the term, “compact fluorescent”, or “CFL” in the bulb’s description.   
  • For CFLs that cast a warm glow in your home, check for the term, “warm”, in the bulb’s description.
  • Select only the wattage needed.  CFLs use approximately a quarter of the wattage used by a traditional bulb to produce the same light. For example, to replace a traditional 60-watt bulb, look for a CFL that offers 15 watts.  To determine wattages recommended for different types of light fixtures, click here.
