79 percent of Germans set to energy-efficient lighting, the 30.08.2011 Berlin. As of 1 September, 60-Watt bulbs must be replaced by LED – and energy-saving lamps. 79 percent of Germans support this approach and find it right to efficient lighting in terms of environmental protection. This gives a representative Emnid survey commissioned by Lightcycle. Recycling of lamps: One out of five would use collection box 73 percent of those polled know also how the energy-saving bulbs again be disposed after use eight percent more than another in January of this year. Just under half (48 percent) would be a saving lamp to a municipal collection point as a recycling center or the Schadstoffmobil. One in five (19 per cent) a collection box in a business uses for the return and 6 percent of those surveyed giving their old lamp to hazardous waste. Nationwide, there are now more than 6,000 collection points, which can be found in the collection search under.

Cost-conscious when purchasing a lamp if is the respondent a new lamp buy, first pay attention to the cost. Two-thirds of search for a light source with low power consumption, in order to save energy costs. The second most important purchase criterion (54 percent) is the purchase price. Aesthetic criteria such as light properties (40 percent) and shape/design/look of the lamp (20 per cent) play a subordinate role when purchasing a lamp. Energy-saving lamps are the best alternative for budget conscious buyers thanks to their high energy saving.

For the survey, TNS Emnid interviewed 1,005 people aged 14 and above on behalf of Lightcycle from 23 to 24 August 2011. Lightcycle returned logistics and service Lightcycle is a not-for-profit joint venture between leading lighting manufacturers and organized the return of disused fluorescent, LED and low energy light bulbs nationwide. Consumers can take to small collection of amounts of in the participating commercial and municipal waste and recycling sites their old energy-saving bulbs. Commercial quantities are accepted at the designated collection points in large quantities. Lightcycle leads the collected lamps a proper recycling, which the recycling of valuable raw materials is ensured.

Which bulb has the advantage? Full-spectrum light or LED? We all need every day light. Untroubled sunlight is best. But we have not always available. On cloudy days, much less spectral components of sunlight can reach us. The impact know many people who suffer from the so-called winter depression especially in the dark months. So, we need the full light of the Sun, in order to feel comfortable, to stay fit and healthy. But only a part of the sunlight reaches us through window glass. Among other things, the vital UV components are locked out.

Which are important for the body’s vitamin D production, to increase the strength of the bones (osteoporosis). They support but also our contrast marriages and the luminosity of the color. Here, Clayton Morris expresses very clear opinions on the subject. It is therefore important to use light sources, producing a possible natural and also UV-containing light. In recent months, Guaranteed Rate Affinity has been very successful. Full spectrum bulbs deliver such a Sun-like light without the risk of sunburn. It is fluorescent and Energy saving lamps. There are these full spectrum lights in all common sizes, thicknesses and versions.

You can replace his old fluorescent tubes so just with full spectrum fluorescent bulbs and so nearly repeated at noon in the House the clear light of the Sun. The same applies to the traditional light bulbs, which can easily be replaced by full spectrum bulbs. Full spectrum bulbs improve our eyesight, much less tiring and can support our health. For some time, there is now the even more efficient LED lights for the different versions. Unfortunately, LED bulbs have a yet poorer range than our conventional fluorescent or incandescent lamps. However, the savings compared to an incandescent lamp is enormous. So, for example, a 40 watt light bulb can be replaced by a 2.7 watt LED bulb with comparable brightness. That has even 50,000 hours life span compared to an incandescent lamp with only 1,000 hours. As a result the high have Cost of the LED lamp off after 3,500 hours. Now where do I used which bulb? Full spectrum tubes and energy-saving bulbs are preferable to anywhere where we want to stop us long and well see. Dining iron, embroidery, reading, writing, crafting, prepare, painting, etc. full spectrum light provides the best support for the natural appearance and well-being. By the way, it relieves the eyes. So an ideal lighting for workplaces. LED bulbs can be used very well about all there, where a certain ambient lighting is required, and the light will remain on, in the hallway, for example. There the benefits of very low consumption comes closest to the wear. It is currently disabled, i.e. very little supportive work light. Sometimes we forget that the fluorescent technique (tubes and energy-saving lamps) so such is already saving energy compared to incandescent and halogen lamps. If you for example a 60 watt light bulb through a high-quality full spectrum lighting bulb (Lifetime 15, 000 h) replaced, they need only 11 Watts. The full-spectrum-saving lamp saves so 49 Watts per hour and has paid off after approximately 2,250 hours through the energy savings. So it makes sense to consider which light source to which place should be used to achieve the optimal solution for your needs. Answers to other questions, visit my homepage or answer I like to call.

Monarchis is with the use of latest technologies in the receivership at the up-to-date level of New Ulm/Lohfelden, 08 May 2009 it applies especially in the real estate sector, to be technologically up to date when it comes to the refurbishment and renovation of houses. The Monarchis company of Grundbesitz mbH, acquires primarily renovation-needy communities or Zwangsverwaltungen items. But also interesting objects of housing companies, such as, for example, the 17 multi-family townhouses with 85 units in Lohfelden, near Kassel. The renewal of the hot water and heating Monarchis is technologically new way. The 17 multi-family townhouses flowed on 01 April 2009 owned by Monarchis in the Sohrestrasse in Lohfelden near Kassel are also ideally located and have a good structure. In connection with the necessary remedial measures, such as new Windows and doors, as well as the insulation of roof and basement, new solutions for domestic hot water and heating are a topic.

Different possible alternatives for Hot water and heating is drawn the combination solar panels (hot water) and natural gas burning value thermal (heating) into consideration. Because all remedial aims, the lettings sustainably lower, to be environmentally friendly and to improve the quality of living. The advantages of condensing technology based on natural gas are obvious. Achieve a standard efficiency of over 95 percent natural gas condensing boiler! How that is possible? In contrast, the condensation heat of vapor in the exhaust gas is used to conventional heating systems with condensing boilers. An improvement of combustion efficiency is carried out through the use of the condensation heat. An additional asset is the fact that the exhaust gas temperatures and thus the exhaust gas losses are significantly lower.
