NATURAL LIGHTING
Maximising your use of natural light will save on lighting bills and help eliminate germs and dust mites.
>> paint interior walls in pale shades and use mirrors to reflect natural light, particularly in dark rooms.
>> on bright, sunny days (that aren’t too hot), open blinds and curtains to admit as much light as possible.
>> if your house is especially dark, think about installing large windows make them taller rather than wider, to admit more light.
>>Situate work areas, such as desks and kitchen sinks and benches, close to source of natural light.
>> Consider installing a sky tube or solar tube. It concentrates and reflects natural light through a diffuser into the room below. The light generated is the equivalent of a 100 Watt bulb.
