Quick question for maintenance teams. How many lighting fixtures has your crew touched twice this year? Drop a number. A rough guess is fine.

“CES kept their focus on our projects and provided us with great ideas to streamline and simplify the entire process.”

Thank you to the Building & Grounds Manager at our Wisconsin school district customer. We upgraded lighting at three of their facilities this summer. www.ces-na.com

You cannot set the rate. You can set the schedule. Advanced lighting controls help lights run when people need them. Want to see where yours could?

Look up at your office ceiling.

Those long fluorescent tubes have probably been there since the building opened.

Nobody thinks about them until one starts flickering over somebody's desk.

Congress is debating lamp rules again this month. That debate does not change anything in your building.

The reason to upgrade was never the rule. It was the service calls and the rooms where the light is just bad.

What you save depends on your rates, your hours, and your building.

Take a look up this week. You will probably find your list.

When a regional warehouse upgraded their lighting, they didn't just save on energy bills. They got brighter, more productive workspace.

Better visibility. Fewer maintenance headaches.

$56,820 annual savings. 777 fixtures upgraded. 1.75-year payback.

Utility rebates offset 25% upfront.

Your lights are probably on 24/7. They could be smarter.

Smart lighting controls (occupancy sensors, scheduling, daylight harvest), all align your lighting with actual operations.

The result?

Significant energy savings.

And some utility programs pay you back for it.

No new fixtures required.

Curious what your facility could save with the right controls?

A safe floor starts with one thing. Being able to see it.

Dark corners and uneven light hide hazards. Better lighting is one of the easiest safety wins most facilities miss.
