LED lighting upgrades in Tonypandy
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Available across Tonypandy and Mid Glamorgan. In Tonypandy warehouses and workshops the biggest savings come from swapping metal halide high bays for LED, where a 400 W lamp plus gear can often be replaced by a fitting drawing 150 W or less.
Local LED lighting upgrades in Tonypandy
Where ceilings in Tonypandy 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 Tonypandy 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.
Our teams travel to Tonypandy from across Mid Glamorgan. Typical nearby jobs include Cymmer, Ystrad and Rhondda, so we can often combine survey visits.

Rules that apply in Tonypandy
The Welsh Approved Document L Volume 2 (2022) uses 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt for general lighting, with alternatives such as LENI. A new Welsh edition takes effect from 4 March 2027 with a higher figure of more than 105.
In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Privately rented commercial property in Wales generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
