Lighting Systems

Enlightening ideas to gain maximum value from your lighting investment

Although lighting is a basic business necessity, it should be planned and maintained carefully. Lighting choices have far-reaching effects on customer perception, employee productivity, and safety. The type of lighting you install also determines long-term energy consumption and replacement costs.

Lighting Applications
Security Lighting	Improve your facility's safety and security with adequate lighting.
Façade Lighting	Make a grand first impression with dramatic lighting touches.
Landscape Lighting	Enhance your landscape investment with special lighting effects.
Parking Lot Lighting	Soothe customer and worker anxiety with well-lit parking areas.
Lighting Maintenance Programs	Reap substantial savings through well-planned light-changing and fixture maintenance programs.

Lighting Technologies
Fluorescent Systems	The leading commercial lighting with good efficiency, low brightness, long life, and a range of sizes and colors.
Incandescent Systems	The least efficient system but simple to install and use, with low initial cost, instant starts, warm color with great color rendition, and a small size.
High Intensity Discharge Systems	A family of systems (high and low pressure sodium, metal halide, and mercury vapor) that provide efficiency and long life. Excellent for outdoor use but also work in many indoor settings.
High Pressure Sodium Systems	A highly efficient system with golden white light that produces reasonable color rendition.
Low Pressure Sodium Systems	A system with the highest available efficiency and fast restarts, for use where color rendition is unimportant.
Metal Halide Systems	A highly efficient system with bright white light that provides excellent color rendition.
Mercury Vapor Systems	An older system type used as an outdoor alternative to fluorescents. Learn about money-saving substitutes.
Occupancy Sensors	Save money by automatically ensuring that lights are off in unoccupied areas.
