LED lighting upgrades in Doncaster
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Doncaster 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 Doncaster
Where ceilings in Doncaster offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
In Doncaster 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.
We cover the whole of Doncaster, including the DN1, DN4 and DN2 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Bentley, Edenthorpe and Adwick le Street.
