LED lighting upgrades in Wootton Courtenay
What we do in Wootton Courtenay: swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Wootton Courtenay now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.

Is it worth replacing fluorescent tubes with LED?
Usually, yes. Common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by GB ecodesign rules from September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended in February 2024, so replacements are getting harder to source. LED fittings typically use 30–60% less energy for the same light.
