The industry standard for lighting has become LED lighting, both residential and commercially. Homeowners and business owners can benefit immensely from switching to LED lighting, specifically when it comes to cost efficiency. For this reason, if your business has a refrigeration system, it could be time to switch to LED lighting to save on energy usage and expenses. Consider these reasons to make the change to LED lighting.
Retrofitting
Make no mistake, making changes of any kind can seem tedious and costly. But switching to LED lighting doesn’t have to be.
Many lighting products can be retrofitted to use LED bulbs of different sizes and shapes. It can be easier than you think to replace fluorescent bulbs and upgrade to LEDs.
Reduce Lamp Heat
Refrigeration requires that things be kept at a certain temperature. Heat is counterproductive. But lighting systems often produce a significant amount of heat, meaning refrigeration systems have to work harder to keep the temperature at the right level. Fortunately, LED lighting gives off a fraction of the heat of other light bulbs, so you can reduce the overall lamp heat and the energy your refrigeration system has to use to counteract that heat.
Lighting Quality
Over time, LED lighting has only gotten better and better, improving in both efficiency and quality. LED lighting options are vast. You can choose from a variety of colors and temperatures to get just the right desired lighting effect.
Savings
LED lighting saves money multiple times over. Not only are they energy efficient, reducing energy costs overall, but they are also long-lasting. LED lights have long life spans ranging anywhere from 50,000 to 100,000 hours. Compare this to the 7,000 to 15,000-hour lifespan of a fluorescent bulb, and you can see the savings benefits. Fewer purchases not only save money, but also time and maintenance. It’s the reason why many are making the switch to LED lighting.
