The Opportunity

JLL desired to convert this LEED Gold Certified building from fluorescent to LED and capture maximum savings by installing sensors on each floor. JLL selected a product but were apprehensive about including the dimming feature on all lights. JLL selected two areas of focus, the building’s garage and stairwells, and contacted Bay Lighting for assistance.

Bay Lighting Solution

Samples were installed to ensure customer satisfaction with the overall appearance and light levels of each application. The samples also allowed the customer to see dimming first hand and gauge how their tenants reacted to the lighting controls. Fixtures were networkable and installed in zones for optimum energy savings.

The Benefits

Was color temperature taken into consideration throughout the building? Are the lights in the fitness room the same brightness as those in the lobby?

What We Used

 
A networkable system is set up in zones. Once one light detects motion, it triggers all lights in the zone to become active. Pictured above is the ILP FZ Low Profile Strip lighting.

The Results

 
Bay Lighting supplied a sample LED fixture to test in the garage at One Thomas Circle. After converting to LED, the facility will save $10,066.75 on their utility bill, in the garage, over the course of one year.

    Anyone comparing commercial LED lighting products will quickly encounter the term "DLC Listed." It may appear on a manufacturer's specification sheet, in a distributor's product description, or among the requirements for a commercial lighting rebate. For building owners and facility managers planning an LED lighting upgrade, seeing a product on the DLC Qualified Products List can provide useful information about its performance. But a DLC listing does not answer every question about a fixture.

    Commercial lighting has changed a lot over the past decade. Commercial facilities have increasingly moved away from older fluorescent lighting toward integrated LED solutions. In some buildings, that means replacing older fluorescent flat panel fixtures with new integrated LED flat panels that eliminate routine fluorescent lamp changes. In other applications, an existing fluorescent troffer may be replaced with an LED flat panel as part of a broader lighting upgrade.
