Potential benefits of LED lighting
There are many reasons and benefits to change to LED lighting, our DMH electricians have highlighted some of them below;
Monetary savings with LED lighting
By using LED lighting over incandescent (halogen) lighting, 85% less energy is used. The running cost of LED lights is much more cost effective than fluorescent or incandescent lighting, no other form of lighting matches the energy and cost saving benefits of LED lighting.
Environmental benefits of LED lighting solutions
Unlike conventional lamps (bulbs), LEDs have no harsh chemicals such as mercury which can be present in older lamps. The latest LEDs still remain as bright as conventional lamps, while producing almost no UV emissions. As a result LEDs can be recycled safely without leaking chemicals into the atmosphere or environment.
In Addition, LED lights endurance is incomparable to conventional lamps. LED lights can last as long as 10 years or the equivalent of 50,000 hours! This is a big factor in why so many people are now switching to LED lights.
How does LED Brightness compare?
As noted earlier, LED lights can use 85% less energy than conventional lamps, this is because a 7 watt LED gives the same brightness as an old 50 watt spotlight. As a direct result, this can translate into lower electricity bills. A noticeable benefit is that LED lights are at full brightness right away, unlike regular energy saving lamps which take time to ‘warm up’.
Now LED lighting has become more affordable, it is much more common and used considerbly more in residential properties across the globe. In fac,t most new builds now install LED lighting as standard.
LED lights for my commercial property
LED lighting in commercial properties has been important in keeping energy usage down for many years. Usage will always be high, but by making use of LED lighting, costs can be reduced significantly.
As most commercial properties have their lights on for many hours a day (some 24/7), an 85% saving on electricity used for lighting will mean a considerable financial saving over the course of a year.
Having installed LED lighting in many commercial properties throughout Milton Keynes and the surrounding area, DMH Electrical have the expertise and knowledge to offer you the best solutions for your business.
