Local office lighting in Totnes
Many Totnes office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Meeting rooms are where Totnes 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.
Totnes sits within Devon. We work throughout the TQ9 postcode district and surrounding places, including Paignton, South Brent and Buckfast.
