Lighting surveys
Whether you are a business, public-sector organisation or own a community building, a high proportion of your electricity bill is likely to be spent on lighting. Any lighting system will deteriorate over time through ageing and lack of maintenance. In recent years lighting technology and efficiency has come on in leaps and bounds – this means that the scope for saving energy on lighting is increasing every year. Our independent surveys will show you whether you are still meeting recommended light levels and make suggestions for upgrades to lamps and controls that will save you money and improve your lighting.
