LED lighting upgrades in Ongar
What we do in Ongar: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Old tubes are hazardous waste. Our teams working in Ongar bag and recycle them through an authorised route and give you the paperwork.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Ongar
Where ceilings in Ongar 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 Ongar 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 Ongar, including the CM5 postcode district, and nearby places such as Epping, Ingatestone and Harlow.
