Upgrade to LED Lighting Solutions
The modern technology LED bulbs utilize makes them a versatile addition to many different businesses. Not only are LED bulbs more energy efficient and durable, they are tunable, compatible with smart technology, and so much more. This allows businesses to customize their space while cutting costs on monthly electric bills.
For restaurants specifically, LED bulbs are perfect for creating a tailored atmosphere for patrons. Here’s how:
- Dimmability – you can decrease the brightness of the lights in the dining area during the evening to allow for a relaxing and comfortable environment. With dimmability, you can adjust brightness at any time to mirror time of day or maximize comfortability for your customers.
- Color Customization – you can also adjust the colors to really bring out the branding of your establishment. No matter the season, you can celebrate by tailoring your lighting to match festivities. Create a fun and engaging atmosphere with the open-ended possibility of LED lighting color-changing capability.
- Brighter Light Output – brighter lighting in a commercial kitchen can also decrease the opportunity for mistakes or injury. You can also use brighter lights in your parking lot to ensure customers feel safe to dine with you no matter the time of day.
- Durability – you can use LED lighting inside and outside your building. Use eye-catching light displays or signage to draw in customers before they ever enter the building.
- Comfortability – LEDs have minimal heat emission, so they won’t get hot. They also offer flicker-free, brighter lighting that reduces eye strain and reduces headaches for staff and customers.
Not only do LED lighting solutions allow you to customize your space and create a comfortable atmosphere for customers, these bulbs are energy efficient, leading to cost savings for your company! But how much more efficient are they?
LED bulbs are up to 75% more efficient! In other words, 5 traditional bulbs might be needed to achieve the same level of brightness as just 1 LED. AND they last longer! They typically last 25,000+ hours, which leaves the 1,000 hour lifespan of incandescent bulbs in the dust.
