LED lighting upgrades in Heathfield
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Heathfield 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 Heathfield
Where ceilings in Heathfield offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
For an LED upgrade in Heathfield 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.
We cover the whole of Heathfield, including the TN21 postcode district, and nearby places such as Mayfield, Hailsham and Burwash.
