In most the offices, existing T12 fluorescent light fixtures were
left in place but converted to T8 fixtures, which are 20% more efficient
and provide higher quality, flicker free light. Converting existing
fixtures is a lower cost way to save energy and improve light quality
when budgets are tight. We replaced the fixtures in the large entry
and conference rooms with indirect T8 fluorescent lighting (pictured)
over task areas. These fixtures from Finelite provide glare-free
light with an appropriate balance between general and task lighting
cutting the energy use by more than 50% in these rooms. |
