"While business owners are always looking for ways to reduce costs, energy efficiency is the one thing that many overlook," states Pallardy Electric. Most commercial buildings and warehouses still use obsolete types of lighting, they explain, such as fluorescent or metal halide lights.

They continue, "While cheap, these lighting types are far from being energy efficient in any capacity. Fluorescent lights are harmful to the environment, and they can also be a potential safety risk. Over time, maintaining these outdated fixtures will add up and outweigh the upfront cost of energy-efficient lighting upgrades. Not only will you save money, you will also enjoy a safer workplace and help take care of the environment."

Pallardy Electric says that approximately one-quarter of a typical commercial facility's energy usage comes from lighting. While some business owners may hesitate to take the first step in upgrading their lighting options, the company encourages this new change for the better.

As a means of supporting business owners taking this step, Pallardy Electric is offering cash incentives for those who upgrade their lighting fixtures. They state, "This should help mitigate some of the upfront cost of the change and motivate those struggling to make a decision. These upgrades should pay for themselves within a year after incentives are considered. After that, you can enjoy the savings you make in energy consumption for a long time."

Pallardy Electric says that LED lighting has several advantages over other more traditional types of lighting. One of these benefits is a longer lifespan, as LED light bulbs can last for over 100,000 hours before they need replacing. This is two to four times as long as fluorescent, metal halide or sodium vapor lights — and over 40 times longer than an incandescent light bulb.

LED light bulbs also emit much less heat than other types of lighting, which makes them much less prone to causing fire than traditional bulbs. These also operate effectively on low-voltage electrical systems, making them safer in the event that an electrical fault were to occur. They are also much safer for the environment, as they do not contain any of the hazardous elements found in fluorescent and mercury vapor lights. LED lights do not emit ultraviolet rays either, meaning that they can be used to safely illuminate sensitive items, such as art.

According to Pallardy Electric, the specific amount that a business will be able to save over time will depend on two distinct factors. First, electricity bills will be significantly lower to begin with. These savings are also supported by the company's BizSaver Program, which is designed to reward business owners who adopt better, more efficient lighting options.

The second source for significant savings will be in maintenance. LED bulbs last much longer than other lights, so they will not need to be replaced as often. Business owners will save on labor, materials and time that would no longer be spent replacing the bulbs every few months.

Pallardy Electric places their services at the disposal of those looking to make the change and adopt energy-efficient lighting upgrades. They specialize in LED retrofitting and upgrades in commercial buildings. They are licensed and certified electricians with several years of experience in the industry, making them one of the best options in the area for those looking to complete such projects.

The company has also received several customer reviews that attest to the excellence of their work. One review, proudly showcased on their website, says, "I have used Pallardy Electric for multiple jobs, both commercial and residential, and they always provide a high-quality experience, are very well priced and are very easy to work with.
