The main aim was to reduce the energy consumption, eradicate significant maintenance costs all with minimum disruption to residents.
Project:
retro-fit energy efficient lighting
Building:
Anchorage Point
Client:
Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward
Instructing Client:
Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward
Challenges included:
Reduce energy consumption
retro-fit energy efficient lighting
Reduce maintenance costs by 50%+
Retro-fit
Money Saving
Low maintenance
The installation of energy saving lighting for my Client looks great and they are pleased as well with the savings that will be made.
The Future Lighting solution
Remove all old, high wattage light fittings. This was to include all lobbies, stairs, reception and facility rooms
Replace staircase lighting for new LED Bulkheads
Occupancy Detectors, preventing wasted energy usage during
unoccupied periods.
Replace all communal lobby area lights for new retro-fit LED alternatives
Installation of remote occupancy detectors to apartment communal lobbies, therefore controlling lights during occupied periods only.
Supply 5 Year Guarantee documents
Remove and replace old type 50W halogen spotlights with new 4W LED alternatives in the apartment lobbies.
Replace old type 50W halogen spotlights with new 4W LED alternatives and recessed Twin 26W compact fluorescent down lighters for 14w LED fittings in a lift lobby
Design and cost consultancy regarding over specification of existing lighting design. Reduce 25% of fittings to the lift lobby areas on all floors without incurring light level loss.
Refit lighting in two staircases feeding 10 floors that were permanently lit 24/7 without the option of control. Most fittings were located adjacent to glazed window areas
Replace all compact 35W fluorescent fittings for new 14W LED alternatives, with integral occupancy and light level detectors.
Results
Considerable energy usage (90% savings) and high maintenance costs were eradicated.
Overall lighting levels were improved dramatically.
The reduction of fittings saved 65%+ of energy used but light levels were increased by 20%.
Energy savings and reduced carbon footprint by staircase lighting systems switching lights “on” only during dusk and when occupied. These areas have saved 90% “plus” in energy consumption as these staircases are rarely used.
