IMPROVE LIGHT QUALITY While there is a complex science behind light, people intuitively know great light when they see it. Unfortunately for most of us, it's not what we work under one-third of our life. Bad light—such as comes from fluorescents—creates glare, headaches and distorted colors. They cast shadows, flicker and burn out increasing maintenance costs. They are not easy to dim to suit the time of day or the mood you're in. LED lighting is as close as we can get today to manufactured natural light emitting a light quality close to that of the sun. We call it digital daylight. Working under a more natural light makes employees happier and that positively affects their productivity. The Lighting Investment The process of selecting a new lighting system involves a number of different factors that require consideration. Factors that affect the finances include the cost of the fixtures, installation labor costs, the cost of electricity, lighting rebates and subsidies HVAC load from the lights, and maintenance costs. Run a payback analysis with our calculator. Glare People can also be affected by frequent eyestrain, a result of glare caused by the overly bright light sources like a fluorescent lamp. LED lighting provides beautiful, soft light reducing eye strain. Coefficient of Utilization (CU) The CU measures how effectively light gets down to the work surface. Impact Lighting Inc. LED fixtures have a "fatter CU" meaning the lights have a wider distribution filling the room with light and allowing it to bathe the walls. This effect also means fewer shadows in the room.

LED VS. FLUORESCENT At its inception, LED technology was used mainly in small-form factor applications like indicator lights. As technological advances were made and the light output increased, LED applications widened and their importance to the overall lighting market has become considerable. Today's commercial LED fixtures are designed to replace fluorescent technology in ceilings and suspended indoor lighting applications. These fixtures use strips of semiconductor LEDs as the light source and various optical designs channel and diffuse the light. LEDs provide many advantages over commonly installed light sources including lower energy consumption, longer lifetime and better light distribution. ENERGY CONTROLS COST TOXICITY QUALITY
