Why Should You Use Lighting Controls in Your Commercial Building?
Better Manage Lighting Output
Lighting controls are part of advanced network-based solutions that enhance the energy efficiency of a building’s lighting system. They automate and control lights in real time.
Any size of business from every industry can take advantage of the various benefits associated with lighting controls.
Benefits of Lighting Controls
Lighting controls do more than illuminating restaurants, hotels, schools, offices, or any other commercial building:
The lifespan of lamps and ballasts are extended due to reduced run-time, which results in less time spent on maintenance and lowering overall maintenance expenses.- Reduces the number of hours per year that the lights are on.
- Less impact on the planet. More environmentally efficient lighting can cut costs by 30-50%, significantly reducing carbon emissions at the same time.
- For commercial buildings, can improve CSR records to boot.
- Lighting controls automatically turn lights off with timers, sensors, or programming logic. This reduces or eliminates reliance on occupants or collaborators to turn them off.
- Provide appropriate lighting levels, minimize glare, and balance surface brightness, leading to more productive and satisfied employees.
- Dimmers can provide lighting alternatives in multi-use rooms or rooms in which projectors are used.
- Exterior motion detectors can turn lights on when people come into a particular area.
- Lighting controls offer flexibility in lighting a particular room, a group of lights, a section of a floor, or a whole floor.
- Wireless lighting controls increase the ability to easily modify lights in areas where switches and sensors can be placed.
You can find several types of lighting controls in the market, and the benefits they bring to businesses have expanded considerably as lighting technologies have become more advanced.
