Lighting Retrofit and Window Solar Film Installation

Partially completed solar film

Fully completed solar film

Project Description

Financial Energy performed a comprehensive lighting audit and then completed the lighting retrofit and installation. The project included the retrofit of over 2,322 fixtures.

This project provided for the removal of existing T-12 lamps with standard ballasts and replacing them with T-8 lamps with electronic ballasts. The retrofits included installing 2 ballasts (one 1-lamp ballasts and one 2-lamp ballast) in the 3-lamp fixtures so they could be tandem wired, installing new fluorescent fixtures as replacements for incandescents, and replacing incandescent exit signs with new LED exits. These improvements allowed for standardization of materials, reduced energy consumption, improved comfort and reduced maintenance requirements.

Financial Energy worked with an EPA approved recycling and incineration company to dispose of over 14,000 lamps and about 480 ballasts.

Financial Energy also installed over 46,000 square feet of solar film on the windows of the facility. The solar film reduced solar heat gain in summer months, reducing cooling costs. It also reduced heat loss through the windows in the winter months, reducing heating costs.
