Lighting doesn’t just serve a utilitarian purpose of allowing us to see in dark places. Proper lighting allows employees to focus better on their tasks or perfectly illuminate products so that they’re more appealing to shoppers. LED light fixtures are brighter and also more cost-effective than other types of bulb fixtures because they emit a greater amount of lumens (or visible light) while requiring less voltage.
LED lighting fixtures have the maximum efficiency of any lighting fixture on the market. They’re so effective that roughly 80-90% of all energy from an LED lighting fixture goes toward the bulb and only 10-20% of the energy is lost. Conventional lighting fixtures have almost the exact opposite energy efficiency — 20% of energy goes toward lighting the bulb, while 80% or more energy goes to waste. LED bulbs can also last for thousands of continuous use hours without needing replacement.
In addition to all of their energy-efficiency perks, LED bulbs and lighting fixtures are much more customizable and stylish than incandescent bulbs. LED bulbs can be dimmed and controlled more efficiently than incandescent bulbs, allowing you to create the exact ambiance you’d like. Turn the lights down to create a cozy boutique atmosphere or turn them up to maximum brightness and make your products really shine.
If you want to add a pop of color to your business, consider using colored or color-changing LED bulbs. Whether you want sophisticated elegance or a relaxed, casual feel, colored LED bulbs can help you create a unique and unforgettable ambiance. With commercial LED lighting upgrades for your business, you can even choose programmable bulbs that emit different colored lights. Embrace the full spectrum of lighting by choosing stylish and energy-efficient LED bulbs.
Incandescent light bulbs can be negatively affected by extremely hot or cold conditions.
LED lights work well in low-temperature conditions because it lessens the thermal stress on the system’s electrical drivers and diodes. While excessive heat can shorten an LED bulb’s lifespan and affect its efficiency, LEDs do have heat sinks that prevent heat-related lumen depreciation. The heat sinks keep extra heat away from the driver.
With the overall increased performance that LEDs provide, switching to LED lighting is the ultimate commercial lighting improvement for any business.
