LED lighting upgrades in Penrith
What we do in Penrith: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Penrith now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Penrith
Most Penrith 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.
Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Penrith bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
We cover the whole of Penrith, including the CA11 postcode district, and nearby places such as Cliburn, Appleby-in-Westmorland and Wetheral.
