Have you replaced your high bay or equipment?
Have you
replaced your high bay or equipment?
Have you already made the decision to convert this warehouse or factory lighting to LED? With energy savings of up to 70% thanks to the replacement of high metal halide bays, this decision is obvious.
The next logical question to ask yourself is: should I buy new devices or should I upgrade existing devices? In this blog, we will weigh the options to help you make the best decision for your environment.
The 3 most
important things to consider when converting to LEDs
Although your decision may be due to other factors, the total cost, ease of installation and reliability are among the most important to consider.
Total cost
Let us first see what the same is. The energy savings between new and refurbishment are the same. Discounts for new devices tend to be higher than for upgrades. The price of new LED high bay lights has declined in recent years as efficiency has increased. Thus, the price difference between new and retrofitted is negligible. Get a quote.
In fact, the most important costs to consider are
installation costs. The time it will take for your electrician (s) to install
will likely be the biggest difference in total project cost. That's why ease of
installation is an important aspect.
Easy
installation
Unlike outdoor parking facilities, installing a new high-rise facility usually requires one person. It's almost as simple as removing the old device and replacing it completely with the new one. While a high bay renovation can take two people because you have to remove the ballast and the time it takes to physically perform the job can be two to three times longer than a new replacement. Multiply this by the number of fixtures and you may have a significant cost difference.
So, if ease of installation is your main concern, choose new
high LED arrays.
Reliability
New high bay or LED lighting upgrades provide reliable light. They all come with a guarantee. They use the same reliable drivers which are better than other companies.
So where do the differences in reliability begin? They are
mainly in the existing fixture.
Evaluate the status of current devices. Are the lenses
yellow? Is there rust? What is their durability? If their condition is not good
enough to last another 5 to 10 years, consider buying a new device. LED's
new high bay luminaires are rugged yet compact. They have an epoxy coating to
make them harder. They do not need reflectors and you have a choice in optics
and features. They also offer it to you according to your needs and also offer
a good guarantee.
If your current fixtures have a custom design and they are
in good condition, or if you prefer their appearance better than the new
options available, retrofitting may be a good choice for you.
Overall, considering the total cost, ease of installation
and reliability, buying new LED high bay is the best option
