New Regulations to Fluorescent Lamps

You may not have read or heard, but if you have fluorescent light fixtures in your house or business you may be in for a big surprise.  Just recently the Federal Government has passed new Regulations for all Fluorscent lamps.  Basically all T12 (larger) 4' and 8' Fluorescent bulbs will be eliminated, you must change over to the T8 (smaller) bulbs.  The process is not as easy as changing the bulbs, ballast must also be changed to an electronic ballast.  Check out our website for a chart of the new standards and some additional tips.  http://www.richlandacehardware.com/
