5 Easy Ways to Save Energy and Improve Lighting
Convenient and Cost-Effective Upgrades
1) Re-lamp Warehouse High Bays with 49W T5HO LampsIncrease energy savings of existing T5HO high bays by group re-lamping with reduced wattage 49W T5HO lamps. Up to 10% energy savings without compromising light output. A 200 fixture warehouse can save up to $2,060 per year*.
2) Programmed Start T8 with Wall-Mount Occupancy SensorSmall offices, break rooms, hallways, and restrooms can all benefit from a simple upgrade to programmed start T8 ballast and wall-box sensor. Benefits include energy savings and prolonged lamp life.
3) Retrofit Halogen PAR lamps to Electronic HID with Ceramic Metal HalideOver 30% energy-savings, longer life, higher CRI, and greater lumen maintenance without any color shift can be achieved by switching to eHID with Ceramic Metal Halide. This upgrade may be more suitable and cost-effective than LED in certain applications.
4) Replace F96T12 systems with Low Wattage, Electronic T8 BallastAn 8-foot 2-lamp system can be reduced from 145W (F96T12) to 94W (F96T8 with low BF ballast). A facility with 200 fixtures can save up to $4,700 per year*.
5) Group Re-lamp facilities with Reduced Wattage T8 lampsFacilities with T8 lamps that have been used for more than 3 years should consider group re-lamping the entire facility with Reduced Wattage 28W or 25W T8 lamps. Lamp technology has improved to produce lamps that offer instant energy savings while minimally affecting lumen output.
