Find out about the many benefits of installing LED lights.
LED lights are some of the most advanced lights you can find today, and they are worth your consideration if you aren’t already using them. They have many advantages over traditional lights that make it worth your while to install them in your business. Find out about the many benefits of installing LED lights.
Energy Efficiency
Halogen lights convert most of their energy into heat, roughly 90% to be precise. Only 10% of the energy they use actually gets converted into light, which is incredibly inefficient. LED lights, on the other hand, use most of their energy to produce light. They also only use roughly 15% of the energy that a halogen lamp uses. On top of that, LED lights don’t emit as much heat, which cuts down on cooling costs.
Life Span
LED lights last for much longer than traditional lighting options. They often last anywhere between 8 and 10 times longer than halogen lamps. This means you won’t have to replace them as often, which in turn cuts down on how much you spend installing lights.
Durability
LED lights don’t have any filaments in them and don’t have any glass parts. This means they aren’t susceptible to breaking or vibrations, which is the case for more traditional light bulbs. This makes them perfect for sporting facilities and outdoor places, among other locations. Also, as mentioned prior, they don’t emit as much heat. This makes them much safer to install.
Small Size
LED lights are incredibly small. Some might be as tiny as 2mm. This makes it easier to fit those lights in places that are difficult to reach, as well as tight, compact spaces. You can also use these lights to highlight architectural features on your property.
Safety
Many LED lights are operated at lower voltage, meaning they are cool to the touch and are easier and safer for handling while they’re being installed and maintained. They can even handle exposure to inclement weather, such as snow and rain.
Environmentally-Friendly
If you’re trying to be more environmentally-friendly, it’s time to convert to LED lights. These lights don’t have mercury or other types of harmful gasses in them, and they don’t emit any types of harmful rays. This makes them more beneficial to the planet.
