LED lighting upgrades in Clifton
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Clifton 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 Clifton
Where ceilings in Clifton offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Clifton now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Our teams travel to Clifton from across Nottinghamshire. Typical nearby jobs include West Bridgford, Beeston and Nottingham, so we can often combine survey visits.
