Local office lighting in Newmilns
Meeting rooms are where Newmilns offices waste most light. Presence detectors that switch off after a set time pay back quickly in rooms that sit empty for half the day.
If your Newmilns office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Our teams travel to Newmilns from across Ayrshire. Typical nearby jobs include Darvel, Galston and Kilmarnock, so we can often combine survey visits.
