Turn-Key Lighting Solutions for Multi-Family Housing

 
Best lighting practices produce a better outcome for management and tenants
Lighting at multi-family properties is important to both residents that live at the complex and those that manage the property. Modern LED lighting with proper illumination is important from a safety and operational stand-point.
 
When deciding where to live, prospective residents would much rather invest in a home where management maintains a beautiful shared property free of flickering, discolored, or non-functioning lights. Poor lighting can quickly leave a negative impression. Property managers will be happy to save on energy and maintenance with long-lasting LED which will help improve a property’s bottom line and be a great selling point to prospective tenants.

Types of Multi-Family Properties

 
The different types of multi-family properties have many similarities but when it comes to lighting, each type has a few unique qualities that need to be considered.

Beginning Your Lighting Project

 

Your lighting specialist’s main goal is to deliver the correct lighting for your application. As a first step, we will always recommend starting with the area that may pose the highest safety risk. Secondly, we will analyze energy and maintenance savings to uncover the best option, allowing your property to begin saving for your next lighting project right away. Your lighting specialist will navigate through this process with you to determine the best place to get started. Popular multi-family turn-key lighting projects include:

What Our Clients Are Saying

 
We used to have to change the fluorescent bulbs weekly which required getting out the lift, in addition to coordinating times with security so we didn’t set off any alarms. Since converting to LED, we haven’t had to replace any LED lamps which helps save on manpower and pays for itself.
Rob, Smithsonian Institution
What we appreciated most, besides your excellent service and prices, was the ease of installation and the quick return on investment due to the PEPCO rebate. We also love the brightness and light consistency in our garage now. Also since LEDs are not affected by temperature like fluorescent we will have a much brighter garage in the winter months. We estimate payback in 1 ½ months.
Alex, JBG Smith
Last year our hotel in Annapolis participated the BGE Instant Lighting Discount Program. It was as simple as purchasing $1 LED bulbs and observing the benefits. The LED A lamps were noticed right away by our customers, offering instant and superior illumination. With the task of changing light bulbs eliminated, our staff now has time to perform other needed tasks. The energy savings has been off the charts and our investment paid for itself in less than a few months. I would highly recommend this to any facility.
SpringHill, Suites in Annapolis
Bay Lighting understands multi-family lighting. They have been instrumental in giving us a competitive edge with our unit renovations. They are committed to providing innovative lighting solutions.
Polinger Shannon & Luchs
We have a large inventory of buildings that require a wide variety of lamps and ballasts. We turn to Bay Lighting for next day delivery of quality lighting products. They offer names we trust at prices that suit our budget.
The Architect of the Capitol
A well lit parking lot is critical to business. When we have outages, we need immediate resolution. Bay Lighting’s quick turnaround and skilled staff keep our exterior lighting in top condition. We have the brightest lot at the airport.

Apartment unit turns, or apartment turnover, is the process that happens from the time one tenant moves out until the next tenant moves in. This is an easy, budget-friendly time to consider renovations since there aren’t currently tenants in the unit, and it can make the apartment more appealing to future tenants.
