Automatic Office Lighting Benefits

For businesses, the bottom line is the bottom line. Every business owner wants to increase revenue, but sometimes the easiest way to boost profits is by cutting unnecessary expenses. With that said, here’s a question worth asking: how much of your money is literally burning away in wasted energy?

Employees forget, customers don’t care, and before you know it, your energy bill is higher than it needs to be.That’s where automatic office lighting comes in. Whether it’s with motion sensors, smart scheduling, or daylight-responsive lighting, a lighting upgrade  is one of the simplest, most effective ways to reduce energy waste and improve efficiency.

In this brief article brought to you by Abulous Lighting, we shed light on the reasons why businesses have been, and are still, making the switch to automatic office and outdoor lighting.

How Does Automatic Lighting Work?

Automatic outdoor lighting in Duluth takes the guesswork out of illumination by using smart technology to turn lights on and off based on movement, schedules, or natural daylight. Businesses can use one, or a combination, of the following:

  • Motion Sensor Lighting: Lights automatically turn on when someone enters a space and turn off when no movement is detected for a set period. Great for conference rooms, restrooms, storage rooms, and hallways or staircases.
  • Smart Scheduling: You know your schedule better than anyone. With light scheduling, you can program office lights to turn on and off at specific times.
  • Daylight Sensors: These adjust the brightness of artificial lights based on the amount of natural light available. If the sun’s out, the lights will automatically dim to conserve energy.

At Abulous Lighting, we can integrate all of these lighting solutions for comprehensive coverage. Call or message us today to learn more about your options.

Save Money on Energy Bills

If a penny saved is a penny earned, then there’s a lot of money to be made by conserving energy. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, lighting accounts for about 17% of commercial electricity use. That’s a significant chunk of your energy bill!

With automatic lighting, we reduce energy waste by making sure lights are only on when they’re needed. Over time, those savings add up – and your bottom line will thank you.

Extend the Life of Your Bulbs

Constantly turning lights on and off can shorten the lifespan of traditional bulbs. With automatic lighting, you’ll reduce wear and tear as well as the need for frequent replacements. If you’re using LED bulbs (which you shouldbecause they’re more energy-efficient and last longer), this is even more of a win.

Boost Productivity and Comfort

Good lighting isn’t just about saving money; it’s also about creating a better work environment. Automatic lighting can reduce eye strain and create a more comfortable atmosphere for employees by adjustingbrightness levels based on the time of day or the task at hand.

Better Security for Your Business, Employees, and Customers

Leaving the lights on all night might deter burglars, but it’s not exactly energy-efficient. With automatic landscape lighting, you can program your lights to turn on and off at random intervals to give the appearance that someone’s in the building. Motion-activated lights are also effective in scaring away trespassers.

Is Automatic Lighting Right for Your Business?

The short answer? Probably, yes. Whether you’re a small business owner or managing a large corporation, automatic lighting offers benefits that are hard to ignore. It’s a one-time investment that pays for itself over time through energy savings, reduced maintenance, and improved efficiency.

Absolute Lighting installed my outdoor flood lights 2 years ago and they are beautiful! They did such a great job that I used them to setup and take down the Christmas lights for the past 2 years. I would highly recommend them. Frank always responds to questions and automatically puts me on the schedule for set up and take down of the Christmas Lights.

Frank and the team at Abulous were great to work with. They came out and retro-upgraded some previous lighting that we had done a few years back and made it look as seamless and continuous as possible. They also worked with us on the best (& most economical) way to light up a hard to reach area of our yard. They also followed up with us after we had another group of workers "disturb" some of the lighting wires and came back out and fixed everything back up again. Very friendly, dependable local resource who do great work. Highly recommend.

After reviewing multiple companies we contracted with Abilous Lighting to create outside accent lighting for our home, backyard patio, walkways, & fire pit.  Their ideas and design were the best!   It was a pleasure working with Frank Hasty, who did  the design, and his crew of Brandon & Rusty who performed the work.  All were excellent to work with.   We are very happy with Abulous Lighting.
