Hotel lighting improvements can save energy and reduce operating costs

According to data from FlexYourPower, a California market project and a new program for the Federal Energy Star, the service industry spends nearly $4 billion a year on energy consumption. In addition, the data also show that the power consumption of an ordinary hotel accounted for 60% to 70% of the overall cost of spending.

Thus, suitable and correct lighting can create better security and enhance awareness of security. To maintain the integrity of the building today, lighting designers, architects and engineers have the power of choice in both indoor and outdoor lighting. The new LED technology enables designers to provide high quality lighting systems within the scope of the latest energy efficiency code. Through the installation of LED lamps, the hotel can retain its own aesthetic effects and facilities on the integrity of the performance, while achieving energy conservation and maintenance.
