Commercial space all over the country is being converted for different uses, and we see it all the time when we do lighting upgrades. Often times when a tenant moves from a space, that is when the owner realizes it makes sense to upgrade lighting for the future tenant. As always, the most important part of a lighting system is whether it accomplishes the goals of the user, and with the changes in space utilization that can in turn change the purpose of the lighting.
In the above picture is a former warehouse turned indoor soccer field. It is now being used daily and gets many compliments for the increase in light levels and consistency. As can be seen from the picture, previously there were many areas of the ceiling that were missing fixtures entirely or had fixtures broken/hanging that posed a safety hazard in addition to the lack of light.
In cases like we, it is best to have Premier Lighting assess the existing lighting and provide suggestions for replacements. This includes handling the rebate and grant paperwork as part of our turn-key lighting upgrade process to provide our customers with the best value and save the most money on their lighting project. With the help of rebates and grants, this location in Minneapolis was able to finish the upgrade to new LED highbay fixtures with sensors at an affordable cost. Install was completed by a licensed contractor on behalf of Premier Lighting. The new LED highbays are safe and secure, and spaced out in a way that best utilizes their light spread to cover the space evenly.
Things change quickly in lighting and we work hard to stay on top of the latest in lighting, controls, rebates and more. Premier Lighting has been doing it for 35 years and many of our customers have been with us for the majority of the time. If we can provide a quote or help with your lighting system in any way, please reach out and send us a message.
