Makes already quite time, specifically the 1 of September of 2012, entered in force a normative European that prohibited the manufacture of light bulbs incandescent. He next month and four years after les touches the shift to the lamps halogen that also have been condemned to disappear, through a new normative.
Removal of halogen lamps confirms the intention of the European Union to promote more efficient lighting solutionsand generating fewer emissions. As it has secured Carlos López Jimeno, general director of industry of the community of Madrid, to the source of this news:
It is one measure more. It will replace one inefficient technology by another less expensive from the point of view of consumption and energy sustainability.
As carries advertising from quite a while ago, the LED bulb has become the best option that users can use. Even so and despite the fact that this technology is already quite widespread, indeed must overcome various obstacles to its mass deployment, including the price already that LED can cost twice as much as a fluorescent light.
A European regulation will do that from September halogen lamps no longer manufactured.
In this sense, Carlos López Jimeno says:
Are in a good road but is by make an important work pedagogical, because not is easy explain what should be the criteria to follow when is acquires a lamp or bulb LED. A 60-watt incandescent bulb can now be replaced with a lamp just 10 watt LED technology.
As it announces the Institute for the diversification and saving of energy, different types of light for each room of the homeare recommended:
- Best for cooking are fluorescent tubes 28 Watt or energy saving of between 15 and 20 Watt lamps.
- In the room of bath is sufficient with a light general and another in the mirror, both of low consumption and with tones warm.
- For the living room, the IDAE recommends points of direct and indirect light and also install a faint light behind the TV to reduce visual fatigue.
- In the dining room just a ceiling lamp 7W LED or lights of low power consumption 11W-20W powered.
- The areas of reading require a lighting concentrated and adjustable in height, for example with fluorescent of 15W and 20W.
- In the bedroom, it is necessary to have with a soft, warm and uniform general lighting.
Finally, in the offices, is recommended lamps fluorescent Compact of 11W to 20W and, in the area of the computer, other fluorescent or lamp of low power that facilitate the display of the monitor.
