Trade in five incandescent bulbs for five free CFLs at The Great Exchange

This spring, with The Great Exchange, we’re taking in air conditioners, dehumidifiers and incandescent light bulbs at all Walmart, The Home Depot and Rona retail locations throughout Toronto.

You can trade in up to five incandescent light bulbs in exchange for the same number of compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs). CFLs use up to 75 per cent* less electricity than traditional incandescent light bulbs so they’re a great way to cut down on electricity usage.

You can also exchange your old room air conditioners for a $25 gift card and old dehumidifiers for a $10 gift card. Visit torontohydro.com/exchange for more details.
