Local warehouse lighting in Ledbury
For Ledbury sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Warehouses around Ledbury often still run 400 W metal halide or sodium high bays that take minutes to strike up. LED comes on instantly and usually uses less than half the power.
Our teams travel to Ledbury from across Herefordshire. Typical nearby jobs include Great Malvern, Oxenhall and Ashleworth, so we can often combine survey visits.
