LED lighting upgrades in Redhill
Swap fluorescent, halogen and metal halide fittings for efficient LED. Most Redhill 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 Redhill
In Redhill 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.
For an LED upgrade in Redhill 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.
We cover the whole of Redhill, including the RH1, RH2 and KT20 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Reigate, Reigate and Banstead and Godstone.
