By now we all know that LED lighting is the lighting of the day and the lighting of the future.  LED lighting last years and saves energy. The price of the bulbs is a great value when you consider the quality and the life of the bulb.

If you’re like most business owners and managers, even though you‘re opening a new business or getting an old emergency preparedness system up to code, you still have several other things on your plate. However, making sure your building is up to code is not only extremely important because your local city or county government could close your business, it’s also important to protect your guests, customers and staff. Many people stay compliant because it’s the law. However, there’s a human factor involved. Businesses should strive to be compliant because they want to keep people safe.

We've already spoken about how beneficial it is to switch to LED bulbs. LED lights slash utility bills and help you make less of an impact on the environment, what more incentive do you need? With that being said, making the switch all at once without knowing what you're getting into can be overwhelming, even expensive in some cases. If you're interested in LED lighting upgrades, here is some step by step advice.

Every business owner knows that the law requires them to have well-lit emergency exits with particular emergency exit lights to identify them. So of course we comply in order to pass our fire inspections and keep from being cited. 

For a business to succeed, it needs customers. An awry light bulb might be all it takes to discourage interested clients. To them, a burnt-out light bulb may inflict negative impressions onto your business. They may conclude that this building isn't well maintained or that this business isn't very attentive and diligent. To avoid these thoughts from your customers, you need to make sure your lighting is well maintained. Here are a few tips to assist your business' lighting:

Summer time presents optimal conditions where your emergency exit lights will be needed for safe and effective egress from the building. Spectacular lightning storms cause power outages and destructive fires; over-worked electrical power grids can cause brown-outs (a drop in utility voltage levels) leaving the process of exiting a building dangerous. To insure your system is fire-code compliant, it is recommended to have emergency lighting systems inspected twice per year.

Lighting is essential for operating all businesses, but for retail businesses in particular, the brightness and intensity of store lighting can influence customers' shopping habits.

Converting to LED lighting upgrades is a great experience. In fact, converting to LED lighting may benefit you more than you may initially know. Light Emitting Diodes (LED's) do not emit harmful UV rays. Which is better for your overall health. You can even find a lighting designer to help you get started. You can get great experienced help with any lighting services you may need.
