Research: lighting system maintenance saves money and reduces carbon footprint

It comes as no surprise to learn that many companies pay little or no attention to maintaining light reflecting surfaces/lenses or lighting system components in order to maintain maximum energy efficiency. In fact, most maintenance budgets do not include funds to even clean fixtures.

To optimize lighting systems regular maintenance is necessary to ensure that facilities receive the appropriate quantity and quality of light, as well as, maintaining the overall energy efficiency of each lighting system.

Traditionally, lighting systems are overdesigned to accommodate for the this expected lack of maintenance. Click here to read a report by a University that had an ROI (return on investment) in less than 17 months on their lighting system project AND reduced their carbon footprint.
