Maintenance

Maintenance is vital to lighting efficiency. Light levels decrease over time because of aging lamps and dirt on fixtures, lamps, and room surfaces. Together, these factors can reduce total illumination by 50% or more, while lights continue drawing full power.

To assure lighting quality, for task performance, safety, or aesthetic reasons, proper maintenance is required. Lack of maintenance can have a negative effect on human performance, perception of an area, safety, security, and waste energy.

Regular maintenance is essential to ensure that your facilities receive the desired quantity and quality of light, as well as energy efficiency, from your lighting systems. Periodic maintenance produces a range of benefits, including a brighter and cleaner workplace, a higher level of security, and enhanced productivity.

A study of New York City offices showed that if cleaning was a regular part of lighting maintenance, lighting systems could be downsized. The savings in energy costs is more than organizations spend on maintenance, even taking into account high-cost New York City labor.

Many facilities pay little or no attention to the need to keep light-reflecting surfaces and lenses clean in order to maintain designed light levels. In fact, most maintenance budgets do not include funds to clean fixtures.

Organizations that outsource lighting maintenance can experience a range of improvements. For example, Advanced Lighting Services cleans fixtures as we change lamps, something that can be difficult to accomplish with in-house staff.
