University Baptist Church Gym LED Retrofit Case Study

Customer Profile:

University Baptist Church was founded in 1850 as the First Baptist Church of St. Anthony. The mission at UBC is to be a loving and inclusive community seeking faith, joy and action nurtured by the biblical traditions, the teachings of Christ, and God’s continuing revelation.

Goal:

University Baptist Church was looking to upgrade their lighting in the gymnasium which is used for school activities during the week and church functions on the weekend. Their existing 400W metal halides in the gym were inefficient and overall lighting was dim with several fixtures out, so in addition to saving energy they wanted to improve light levels.

Before: 400W Metal Halide Highbays

After: 135W LED Highbay Fixture

Results:

As the pictures above attest, visibility improved vastly as the 400W metal halides were replaced with new 135W LED Highbay fixtures. Light levels reached 90 footcandles on the floor of the gym. University Baptist also reaped energy savings of 71% with a 9-month payback.
