Lighting Features
- Use energy efficient compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) with high frequency ballasts, which can help you save up to 80% electrical energy consumption for lighting.
- Use only CFLs adhered with an energy label to ensure luminous efficacy. The energy label guarantees that the CFLs can operate a long service life and illumination output is able to meet international safety standards.
- Use lighting fixtures that match the environment together with appropriate luminaries.
Lighting Controls
- Use timer control devices to limit unnecessary lighting.
- Use natural light whenever possible and practical.
Lighting Maintenance
- Ageing lamps or dirt on fixtures can reduce total illumination by 50%; periodical cleaning of lighting fixtures is necessary.
- Use an appropriate number of low wattage lamps to replace the use of high wattage lamps.
- Clean or repaint rooms with lighter colours to enhance light reflection.
