Local LED lighting upgrades in Old Trafford
For an LED upgrade in Old Trafford 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.
Where ceilings in Old Trafford offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
We cover the whole of Old Trafford, including the M32, M16 and M17 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Stretford, Salford and Manchester City Centre.
