Most commercial offices still use outdated fluorescent lights. These bulbs need to be replaced often, use a ton of energy, and have even lower productivity! Here are some little-known problems that fluorescent lighting can cause – and how an LED commercial lighting retrofit can solve them:
Fluorescent Problem: Fluorescent bulbs flicker, causing eye strain and fatigue. Especially towards the end of the day, your staff starts to feel the toll of bad lighting.
LED Solution: LED lights produce a solid, uninterrupted light. There’s no flicker to cause eye strain, and this smoother light allows staff to work their best throughout the day.
Fluorescent Problem: Fluorescent bulbs can be overly bright or not bright enough, depending on how they’re installed. Low-light or over-lit environments both sap staff productivity.
LED Solution: LED lights turn on instantly without needing to warm up and are also dimmable to the best setting for you and your staff. If your office is underlit, this is no problem either – LED lights shine much brighter than conventional bulbs to begin with.
Fluorescent Problem: Fluorescent bulbs produce UV rays, but while they are not enough to cause sunburns in the office, prolonged UV exposure day in and day out is unhealthy!
LED Solution: LED lights use almost all the electricity that flows through them to generate light, so no excess energy is released as heat or UV rays. This is much healthier for your staff.
