LED lighting upgrades in Seaton
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Seaton 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.

For an LED upgrade in Seaton 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.
For Seaton premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
