LAPENNA CONTRACTING PRESENTS
Program Goals Provide better lit spaces that • are energy-efficient, • are cost effective, • help to improve the quality of the lighting for people who will use the space being lighted, and • highlight the quality of merchandise and display items being exhibited.
Why Make the Switch? • 4-foot, 4-lamp, high-output, energy-saving fluorescent light fixtures with multi-tap electronic ballasts provide maximum light output at a far lower cost than other fixtures. • These fixtures light instantly, without any warm-up phase. • New, smaller fixtures take up less space and create a cleaner, streamlined look. • They also produce lower heat output, cutting back on internal BTUs.
More Light, Less Space • Smaller, more energy efficient fixtures are more streamlined, providing a cleaner, less cluttered look. • You get more light, use fewer kilowatts, and save money. • The majority of light is concentrated down, rather than up or out.
Energy-Efficient Lighting • Our new 4-foot, 4-lamp, high-output, energy-saving fluorescent light fixtures with multi-tap electronic ballasts are engineered to use less energy, which saves you money. • The high-lamp reflectionability of these fixtures produces a high-quality, true natural light that is bright and clear. • This lighting technology produces higher and more compressed light color rendering.
Save Energy • Replace inefficient 400-watt metal halide fixtures with new, high-output, energy-efficient fluorescent light fixtures. • Replace 4-foot tandem runway lights with new, high-output, energy-efficient fluorescent light fixtures. • Replace 2’x4’ lay-in fixtures with new, high-output, energy-efficient fluorescent light fixtures.
Save Money • Save money on utility bills by using less energy. • Reduce kilowatt consumption by drastically reducing wattage of light, and yet gain greater footcandles of illumination where it is needed. • Enroll in NYSERDA’s Existing Facilities Program and receive reimbursement incentives for a portion of the cost of the project. • New fixtures are less expensive to maintain. • Lamp life averages 20,000 hours of operation. • In a 4-lamp fixture, if one lamp fails, 75% of light output remains, unlike in other fixtures.

What Else Can Lighting Do For You? • Well-placed lighting can draw customers to areas of interest and peak sales. • Clean, clear lighting creates better product display, showcasing your merchandise and peripheral items. • A well-lit store is inviting and attractive to customers, enticing them to shop for longer periods of time. • Proper lighting aids in morale of employees, creating a pride factor. • Appropriate lighting creates an environment of integrity, high technology, and instills the concept of customer care.
Some Lighting Factors to Consider • Color Rendering Index (CRI) Simply stated, the proper CRI will assure that colors and skin tones appear natural to the people who use the space. The 4-lamp, 32-watt fixtures we will install have a CRI of 85. This means blues are blue, reds are red, and yellows are yellow. • Lumens Simply stated, lumen is the summation of light output of a lamp. The 4-lamp, 32-watt fixtures we will install have a rating of 3050 lumens, providing plenty of light for clear and pleasing illumination of the retail area and the merchandise.
Save on Air Conditioning Costs • Heat output of these new fixtures is substantially less, creating lower ambient temperature, and ultimately causing the HVAC equipment to operate more efficiently. • Replacing these fixtures will lead to substantial savings in air conditioning costs, not calculated in the return on investment. • This savings is increased even more because air conditioning is used most often at peak energy rate periodsalso not calculated in the return on investment.
Energy Efficiency • Energy efficiency is environmentally responsible. • Energy efficiency is economically responsible. • Energy efficiency is politically responsible. • Energy efficiency lends itself to the concept of GOING GREEN.
