The cost of a commercial LED lighting upgrade in Calgary depends primarily on the number of fixtures, fixture type, ceiling height, access requirements and whether existing wiring or lighting controls need to be modified. A small office LED conversion can be relatively straightforward, while a warehouse with high-bay fixtures, lifts and hundreds of lights is a much larger project.
VA Electric provides FREE commercial LED lighting assessments in Calgary to review the existing fixtures, wattages, quantities and installation conditions. From there, VA Electric can provide clear pricing for the LED retrofit and identify opportunities to reduce energy consumption and ongoing lighting maintenance.
The biggest savings from a commercial LED upgrade come from reducing fixture wattage, operating hours and ongoing lighting maintenance. The actual dollar savings depend on how much power the existing lights use, the wattage of the replacement LEDs, how many fixtures are installed and how many hours the lights operate.
VA Electric can compare the existing lighting wattage with the proposed LED lighting system to estimate the reduction in electrical consumption. Occupancy sensors, timers, photocells and other lighting controls can reduce energy use even further.
For Calgary warehouses and commercial buildings with large numbers of fixtures or long operating hours, the energy and maintenance savings can make an LED retrofit especially attractive.
Yes, converting older commercial fluorescent lighting to LED can be worthwhile when the upgrade reduces energy consumption, maintenance costs and fixture failures while improving the lighting in the space.
VA Electric converts T5, T8 and other fluorescent commercial lighting to LED in Calgary warehouses, offices, retail stores, restaurants, shops and commercial buildings. Depending on the existing fixtures, the best solution may be an LED retrofit or complete LED fixture replacement.
Older fluorescent systems can also require ongoing lamp and ballast replacement. Eliminating that maintenance is an important part of the long-term savings from a commercial LED conversion.
There is no single payback period for a commercial LED retrofit because the return depends on the existing lighting system and how the building operates. Fixture wattage, operating hours, electricity costs, fixture quantities, installation costs and maintenance savings all affect the return on investment.
VA Electric can evaluate the existing lighting and compare it with the proposed LED system to estimate energy reduction, operating savings and potential payback before a Calgary business commits to a larger LED retrofit.
Warehouses and commercial facilities with older high-wattage lighting, long operating hours and high maintenance requirements often have the greatest opportunity for savings.
VA Electric installs and replaces warehouse LED high-bay lighting throughout Calgary. High-bay LED upgrades are commonly used in warehouses, shops, industrial facilities and other commercial buildings with high ceilings.
VA Electric can replace older metal-halide, HID, fluorescent and other high-bay fixtures with LED, while also reviewing fixture locations, mounting heights, work areas, aisles and existing electrical conditions.
Warehouse lighting projects can also include occupancy sensors, lighting controls, fixture relocation, additional fixtures and electrical modifications where required. Projects range from individual high-bay replacements to complete Calgary warehouse LED lighting retrofits.
Yes. Metal-halide, HID, T5 and T8 lighting can often be replaced or converted to LED, but the correct LED replacement should be selected for the existing fixture, electrical system and lighting application.
VA Electric completes fluorescent-to-LED, HID-to-LED and metal-halide-to-LED conversions in Calgary for warehouses, offices, shops, retail spaces, exterior building lighting and other commercial facilities.
The goal isn't simply to install a lower-wattage fixture. VA Electric considers light output, fixture location, mounting height, coverage, electrical compatibility and how the area is used before recommending the LED replacement.
