Need Help Picking Out LED Ceiling Fans for Your Home?

If you’ve purchased an appliance for your home or business in the last few years, you’ve probably seen blue labels on certain products declaring them as “ENERGY STAR” rated.

Have you ever wondered what that means, exactly?

The phrase is more common these days among lighting manufacturers, but what do ENERGY STAR rated products have that other appliances or standard products don’t?

According to energystar.gov, “To earn the ENERGY STAR, products must meet strict energy efficiency criteria set by the US Environmental Protection Agency or the US Department of Energy. Since they use less energy, these products save you money on your electricity bill and help protect the environment by causing fewer harmful emissions from power plants.”

The top reasons to install ceiling fans are:

• Bring down your electricity bill – ceiling fans reduce energy costs by 30-40%
• Stylish – different shapes, sizes, and motor and blade finishes
• Ceiling fans provide versatility – ceiling fans contribute to an enjoyable, relaxing feel in your home
• Spectacular and practical illumination – contribute to a desirable LED lighting design
• Year-round value – Ceiling fans circulate warm air in the winter and cool air in the summer
• Great for small houses/rooms – Ceiling fans provide cooler air without a need for air conditioning in smaller homes/rooms
• Reduce AC costs
• No harmful emissions
• In addition, ceiling fans and ceiling fans with LED light kits come in traditional and contemporary designs to fit the look and feel of any home. You can also choose the number of blades and sweep sizes depending on the size of the room you need to cool or heat.

Why Should You Choose Energy Star for Your Home or Business?

Did you know...

• ENERGY STAR rated LEDs last longer than most things in your home: ENERGY STAR lamps undergo thousands of hours of testing to make sure the claims of 20+ year lifespans are actually true! ENERGY STAR LEDs also undergo stress tests to make sure they’ll work in all the spaces you need them to. 
• ENERGY STAR products are the easiest way to lower your electricity bill: Upgrading to ENERGY STAR is the simplest way to lower energy use. Over time, you can save about $75 per LED lamp over the 20+ year lifespan of a typical fixture. If you’re already prioritizing LEDs at your home or business, it stands to reason that you would want to consider ENERGY STAR rated products too, since the savings and efficiency go hand in hand.

There are more lighting options available today than ever before, and still ENERGY STAR rated products are the ideal choice for every application. The high quality and performance in color quality, light output, and peace of mind knowing your lamps will last are worth the cost to upgrade your fixtures!

What CCT and CRI Mean for Wholesale Lighting Suppliers

Did you know…?

•  Lights with a CRI measured greater than 80 are more than acceptable for most applications
• Lights with a CRI that is measured greater than 90 are generally considered “High CRI” lights
• High CRI LED lighting uses less energy than in traditional lighting, while improving the appearance of vibrant colors
• California’s Title 24 initiative provides financial incentives for the installation of efficient high CRI lighting

Also Consider CCT & Foot-Candle When Looking for High Quality LED Lighting

Along with CRI, there are two other measures of a high- or low-quality light you should be familiar with. CCT stands for Correlated Color Temperature (known as Color Temperature for many lights), and a Foot-Candle is a measurement that describes the total amount of light hitting your target area.

When buying under-cabinet lighting, be sure to consider the CCT value. If you want a warmer, more cozy light, go with a lower value such as 2700K. Want your lighting to be closer to daylight? A higher CCT value such as 5000K is best for this use. With CCT Selectable undercabinet lights you can choose the value that is best for you.

A foot-candle is a measurement that describes the amount of light reaching a specified surface area as opposed to the total amount of light coming from a source. From a user’s perspective, foot-candle is a much more important measurement, because a certain amount of light is always lost to light absorption, reflection, and/or dissipation.

Because lighting is so important for our ability to accomplish tasks in the workplace or at home, wholesale lighting suppliers use foot candles to measure the amount of light that is hitting a surface. This allows architects, contractors, and builders to understand the type of lights they’ll need to install in a certain type of space for a specific application.

CRI, CCT and Under-Cabinet Lighting Options

Under-cabinet lighting is one of the most useful and convenient lighting applications on the market today.

These hidden fixtures help illuminate kitchens seamlessly without looking clunky or contrasting with existing décor. They’re also very helpful for recipe reading and keeping the house from being completely dark at night.

Beyond the kitchen, under-cabinet lighting can be used in:

• A workroom, as task lighting
• Laundry room
• Home office
• As accent lighting in bookshelves or glass cabinets

Some light renders color better than others. Color Rendering Index (CRI), is the measurement of how colors look under a light source compared with actual sunlight. The index is measured from 0-100, a perfect 100 indicating that colors under the light source appear the same as they would in natural light.

CRI is also an important measurement for lighting suppliers. It’s used to discern naturalness, hue discrimination, vividness, and color naming accuracy.
