When replacing or upgrading your home with lighting, environmentally conscientious homeowners have to decide how to balance looks and cost.
At Lynea, lighting is important because there are many ways to integrate lighting with our crown molding. Many of our customers enjoy the fact that it is easy to create cove lighting with our product.
Here’s a breakdown of your basic lighting choices:
Fluorescent lights are economical but the light tones are too cool for most homes. They are mostly used in kitchens, hallways, lamps, ceiling fans, etc.
LED lights consume the least power, and are longer lasting with a much brighter appearance. Their material cost is the highest among the three, although energy savings over time make them more cost effective. They are popular for a smaller, more concentrated lighting area due to its cost. They come in many different colors but there is no one color that comes
close to incandescent light.
Incandescent lights give out a warm appearance but consumes more power. However, with the help of dimmers electrical consumption can be reduced.
Incandescent lights can be used wherever you want dimmed and romantic lights, such as bedrooms, bathrooms and dining rooms. One idea has been very popular with homeowners is placing the dimmable rope lights behind the crown moldings. With dimmed light, many homeowners create theatrical lighting for their home theaters.
All of these lights can be used together for their unique features and advantages.
