Lighting systems consume approximately one-third of a building’s total electricity, so energy efficiency improvements can significantly reduce operating costs. Induction Lighting can significantly reduce energy costs, as well as virtually eliminating regularly scheduled maintenance.
- 50% or greater Energy Reduction
- Induction Lighting uses about 50% less wattage to generate an overall more efficient and effective “visible light” output
- Life expectancy is over 100,000 hours
- Most traditional lighting systems last only 7000 to 15000 hours.
- Eliminates the need to regularly scheduled maintenance and lamp/ballast replacements.
- Less expensive than LED lighting systems which claim to last approximately 50000 hours, but have not been proven.
- Lower Total Cost of Ownership – Reduced energy, maintenance and operating costs (see “Installation and Maintenance Benefits” below)
