20 Watt Ecobulb gives off less heat than a 100 Watt incandescent bulb. However international studies have shown there is no significant increase in electrical heating to compensate for the reduced heat from the energy saving bulbs. Most light bulbs are located at ceiling level so the increased heat of an incandescent bulb is lost directly through the ceiling and does not heat the room.
