92 Mountain View
The situation: 92 Mountain View complex was looking for a cost-efficient lighting solution that would still deliver the level of light needed to maintain safety and security at night.
The solution: Arizona Public Service (APS) saved the company more than $5,000 in annual energy and maintenance costs retrofitting their property with energy efficient LED lighting. On top of that, utility rebates through Arizona Public Service (APS) and federal tax incentives provided 92 Mountain View over $3,200 of the total cost of the project.
Better Lighting Means Increased Security
Properties like business complexes require ample lighting to provide security and safety for tenants throughout their property after dark. The HID Metal Halide lighting 92 Mountain View were using was both an energy drain and a constant maintenance hassle because of the hard to reach lighting that needed replacement every 2-3 years. What they wanted was a lighting retrofit solution that would reduce maintenance costs, improve lighting and provide a safer more secure environment for their tenants.
What our certified EEPros Alliance member provided met their criteria, exceeded their expectations and increased the value of their property. 92 Mountain View will recoup the entire cost in just 2.8 years!
Goal: Improve lighting, reduce cost and maintenance
Benefits: Increase property value, increase safety and security in order to attract and maintain tenants
Results: A cost-saving, energy-efficient retrofit lighting solution that will pay for itself in just over two years!
