Value Energy Solutions Completes Warehouse/Office Lighting Retrofit Project for Ken/API - Sharonville, Ohio

Atlanta, GA -- (SBWire) -- 06/04/2013 --Value Energy Solutions, one of the largest lighting installation and lighting retrofit companies in the nation, recently completed an energy efficient lighting retrofit project for Ken/API which is a distributor of drywall and other building products for commercial and residential construction products. One of the concerning expenses they faced in their Sharonville, Ohio location was the cost of lighting their warehouse/office space.

Jon Votel from Ken/API, contacted Chris Owens from Value Energy Solutions to help reduce their lighting energy costs. The Value Energy Solutions team thoroughly reviewed the energy use of the existing lighting program. Value Energy Solutions presented a comprehensive lighting solution that replaces their lighting with new more energy efficient T5 lighting. In addition to the energy savings, Ken/API will dramatically reduce their maintenance costs due to the extended life of the new T-5 lighting fixtures.

Value Energy Solutions recommended upgrading the lighting fixtures to 4 LampT5 (54w) The T5 High Bay fluorescent fixtures have many advantages over traditional lighting. Vapor Tight Reflector T5 units were also used in 2 of the warehouses…T5 Lamps are the most energy efficient technology in the fluorescent lighting industry for the cost. The project also incorporated LED wall packs & spotlights for exterior applications and T-5 basket retrofit kits for interior office applications…

- Energy Efficiency - Typical 54 watt T5 lamp produces 5000 lumens
- Lower Lumen Depreciation - only 5-6% lumen output loss between the rated
initial and maintained lumens. Metal Halide lumen loss is about 35%.
- Higher Quality Lighting - T5 lamps have a color rendering Index of 85 while metal
halide lamps have a CRI of 65-70.
- Instant Startup and Restrike - T5 fluorescent lamps start and restrike instantly
unlike HID sources which can take several minutes to restrike.
