LED lighting upgrades in Magherafelt
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Magherafelt businesses we survey still have a mix of T8 battens, 600×600 fluorescent panels and the odd halogen downlight. Replacing them with complete LED luminaires usually cuts lighting energy by a third to a half.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Magherafelt
We quote Magherafelt LED upgrades as a fixed price with a fitting schedule, so you can see exactly what is being replaced, where, and what it should save.
For an LED upgrade in Magherafelt we start by counting fittings and running hours, because payback depends far more on how long lights are on than on the price of the fittings.
Our teams travel to Magherafelt from across County Londonderry. Typical nearby jobs include Maghera, Cookstown and Randalstown, so we can often combine survey visits.

Rules that apply in Magherafelt
