HDB lighting: Selecting energy-efficient bulbs for HDB flats (how_to)

Energy-efficient bulbs reduce electricity consumption, lower your utility bills, and last longer than traditional bulbs, saving you money and reducing environmental impact.

LED bulbs are highly recommended for HDB flats due to their energy efficiency, long lifespan, and variety of color temperatures suitable for different rooms.

Consider the rooms function: living rooms and kitchens need brighter lights (higher lumens), while bedrooms and hallways can use softer, lower lumen bulbs.

While the initial cost might be higher, energy-efficient bulbs save money in the long run due to their lower energy consumption and longer lifespan.

Energy-efficient bulbs are widely available at major retailers, hardware stores, and online marketplaces in Singapore.

Check with your local town council or retailers, as many offer recycling programs for used light bulbs to ensure proper disposal of electronic waste.
