Energy Efficient Exit Signs
It is a little-known fact that safety devices such as exit signs and emergency lighting can draw a considerable amount of power over the course of a year. Many building managers and operations experts will tell you that incandescent exit signs that must be lit 24/7 can draw up to $50 a year in power costs. Needless to say, those figures can quickly add up.
The good news is that there are several ways to save power if you are interested in lowering those bills. Probably the most popular nowadays are LED lights, which tend to be brighter, cooler and longer lasting than traditional filament bulbs. Many signs that use such bulbs can reduce energy drain by up to 80 percent in a year.
Thankfully, LEDs offer a number of other advantages as well so you never have to feel as if you are compromising on safety. Generally, the lights are tougher than traditional bulbs, meaning they can withstand greater stress in the form of heat or flooding. They also need replacing far less often than their filament counterparts, with some of the latest models lasting up to 10 years.
Finally, there are a few more ways worth mentioning if you really want to save on power. At The Exit Store, we are proud to offer self-luminous signs that require no batteries or DC power. These are perfect if you want signs that come with no hidden maintenance or power costs down the road. You may also get traditional lead-battery versions, so be sure to look around before you make a selection. |
