Benefits of LED Lighting

The lighting of your facility is a very important element of functionality and can also enhance the aesthetic qualities of your building. LED lighting offers many benefits over other lighting systems, which makes it a good choice to consider when building a new facility or when switching over your existing lighting system. While the initial cost may be more than lighting systems such as florescent or High Intensity Discharge lights, the many benefits of using LED fixtures ensures a return on your investment. Besides being brighter and longer-lasting than other traditional lights, here are just a few other advantages to using LED:

• They can be up to 70-80% cheaper to run.
• They produce less heat, which means additional utility savings.
• Lower maintenance costs due to their longer lifespan.
• Ability to use lighting controls, such as occupancy sensors and dimming options.
• No need for recycling costs, as there are no toxic materials in LED fixtures.
• It's an easy upgrade.
• Offers improved safety and security.

Using intelligent LED lighting systems can give you the ability to control your lights in order to complement your space and to maximize their energy-saving benefits. This technology can allow you to dim or switch lights on/off using occupancy and daylight sensors, which yields even greater energy savings.

With the reduction of costs for fixtures and improvements in the technology of lighting controls, LED systems are a viable choice when it comes to choosing how to light your facility. Both low-bay and high-bay LED luminaries are a great alternative when considering replacements for existing lights or for new construction. Whether you're looking for a light to illuminate a large warehouse or retail space, or a more direct light to light up an aisle, there is an LED light fixture that is sure to meet your lighting needs.

We just recently changed over our lobby lights to LED bulbs and couldn't be happier with the results! Be sure to stop by and check them out. If you'd like more information about all of the advantages to switching to LED fixtures and bulbs, be sure to give us a call. We'd love to hear from you!
