Fluorescent Lamp Change Out

Fluorescent lighting is a reliable, energy efficient alternative to incandescent bulbs. For businesses and commercial spaces, they have been a good solution for internal lighting for decades. However, when it comes time to replace the lamps, it’s not a job that should be undertaken by the business owner or an employee. From electrical safety to choosing the right fixtures and energy efficiency, you need an electrician who specializes in this type of work.

If you own or operate a business in the San Gabriel Valley area, call Ace Pelizon Plumbing the next time you need an upgrade to your lighting. We have years of experience installing fixtures, changing out fluorescent lamps and optimizing lighting system layouts in buildings of all sizes.

Changing Commercial Fluorescent Bulbs

First, make sure you know exactly what you need from your fluorescent lighting. If you plan on having the same bulbs swapped out throughout your building, check to see if there are any advances in the technology that will save you money. Quality also needs to be considered when selecting new lamps.

Age plays a key role in determining when to swap out your fluorescent lamps – so be sure that the new ones you select will last longer or stand up to steady use better, depending on when and how they will be used. When you replace the lamps is a perfect time to reevaluate the tubes being used and how efficient they are.

T8 LED Tubes

LED lighting is quickly becoming a popular alternative to fluorescent bulbs for homeowners, but what about businesses with T8 tubes? There are now LED T8 tubes with ratings of up to 50,000 hours (though none have been tested to that duration). The performance of these lights is not yet as high as we would like it to be, but as it develops, you should consider it for your lamps. LED bulbs are considerably less dangerous when broken than filled CFL bulbs or fluorescent tubes.
