Commercial Lighting

In commercial buildings, lighting typically accounts for 25-30 percent of energy use. New lighting products, including more efficient fluorescent lamps such as "T8" models, can reduce energy costs by as much as 50 percent. The current generation of fluorescent lamps offers excellent lumen maintenance, long service life, improved color rendering, excellent color stability, multiple color temperature choices, instant-on availability and dim-ability. Because these lamps contain mercury they should be recycled.
