A Few Tips for Lighting an Industrial Building
Lighting an industrial building is more expensive that lighting an office space simply because it requires more power and more lighting. Here are a few things you can do to keep costs down.
Maintenance
Bulbs that are in a bad condition tend to blink... continuously. This can be extremely annoying, resulting in lower production from your employees. Regular maintenance means you spend less in the long run.
Lighting Controls
A huge problem in industrial settings is that often times you are lighting the space when no one is there, for instance after hours. Programing your lights to go on and off at the appropriate times can significantly reduce your energy expense.
Upgrade to LED
Older industrial lighting systems are usauly less efficient resulting in a higher cost to operate. LED lighting is more efficient and economical in the long run. The initial cost may be a little more than traditional lighting, but overall you will save money.
