GTA LED Retrofit Assessment is First Step to Power Use Savings
Converting a GTA facility to LED lighting begins with a complimentary retrofit assessment. A complete retrofit brings immediate financial and employee benefits. The process takes into account a number of factors and begins with a complete evaluation of the facility in question. This audit consists of a complete census of the fixtures that need to be replaced, as well as current power usage and potential savings.
Other factors may be considered including the extent of fixture replacement, wiring changes, issues of architectural integrity, design and overall building aesthetics.
A complete retrofit of a facility – such as a warehouse – is a big job, no question about it. But the capital costs of conversion are quickly recouped. The retrofit auditors will know what government rebates are available to the company – and these can be substantial – up to 50% of cost.
The auditors can also calculate the operational savings; a complete conversion to LED lighting can reduce energy consumption by 50 to 70% compared to fluorescent and metal halide bulbs. When factoring in reduced maintenance and bulb replacement costs, the savings are well worth the effort.
