Ways to Save

Install LED Exit Signs

Install LED exit signs. These signs can dramatically reduce maintenance by eliminating the need to replace lamps and can save about $39 per sign annually in electricity costs.

Repair Compressed Air Leaks

Industry average shows 31% of energy use can be avoided by just fixing leaks. This free program will help you save on your monthly energy bills. 

Replace Old Fluorescents

Replace old fluorescent and incandescent lighting with T-8 or LED T-8 fixtures. We use ENERGY STAR, DLC, and ULC certified CFLs or LEDs, and other energy-efficient lighting systems that will improve light quality and reduce heat gain.

Install Occupancy Detectors

Install occupancy sensors to automatically turn off lights when no one is present and back on when people return. Storage rooms, back-of-house spaces, meeting rooms, and other low-traffic areas are often good places to start. Most local utility companies offer incentives to replace these. Occupancy sensors can save between 15 and 30 percent on lighting costs. ARI Energy Consultants even helps to ensure that the occupancy sensors are installed correctly so that they are able to “see” an approaching person’s motion to turn on the light as they enter an unlit room.

Outdoor Lights and Signage

We examine the opportunities where it would be "energy smart" to switch from high-pressure sodium lamps and metal halide lamps in parking lots, around the outside of your buildings and any outdoor signage to ENERGY STAR, DLC, and ULC certified LED products.
