What is The Right LightSM: effective, energy efficient lighting? The Right LightSM -- effective, energy-efficient lighting -- has been defined as "lighting systems that are optimally designed to meet specific application and energy efficiency needs. The systems should be easy to use, aesthetically pleasing, and enhance the visual capability of people using the space." This requires both the Proper Selection of Technologies, and the Proper System Design and Layout. Both parts are required. The result is an energy efficient system that allows people to do the work they need to do in a pleasing, comfortable environment. Utility bills are lower, and people are happier and more productive. The Right LightSM -- effective, energy-efficient lighting -- can save 20 to 30 percent on your electric bills. Maintenance costs are lower, because these lights last longer than traditional ones. And, installation costs are less than you might think. Some businesses recoup their lighting investment in less than one year. The Right LightSM makes your space look better. Effective, energy-efficient lighting creates a more pleasant office environment by reducing glare on computer screens, providing appropriate task and overhead lighting, and producing a warm yet bright light that makes employees feel comfortable and productive. The Right LightSM improves retail spaces by creating a welcoming environment and allowing customers to see the merchandise better. The Right LightSM improves your bottom line. Recent studies show that effective, energy-efficient lighting can increase sales in retail stores by up to 35 percent, bringing out the best in your products. When customers enjoy the store environment and can see the merchandise well, they stay in the store longer and buy more. In an office space, employees who have appropriate light levels and reduced glare on computer screens are more efficient. Employees concerned with detailed work, or who are selecting or matching colors also benefit from the brightness and accurate color rendition of effective, energy-efficient lighting. Energy-efficient lighting is designed to use less energy than traditional lighting and therefore results in lower electricity bills. But not all energy-efficient lighting is created equal. Only The Right LightSM can provide all the benefits that help boost your business. |
