How Retrofitting Church Lighting will Save Money Over Replacements
When implementing new LED lights into your building, LED retrofitting is the best option. LED retrofitting is a process that uses the current lighting systems in your facility and gives them an upgrade without having to remove any of the old systems. Several lighting factors are considered when retrofitting the lighting in your Wisconsin church including:
- The LED light that is projected is different than that of halogen lights
- Surrounding environment purpose may have changed (ex: new church created from a previous nightclub)
- LED lighting characters are different than halogens
- Your current light distribution might need an upgrade
- Etc.
The process of retrofitting LEDs into your church involves adding new lighting solutions to the already existing lighting system. We can guarantee high-quality lighting coverage and efficiency that will be correctly distributed throughout your property.

What are my LED options for 2 x 4 ceiling fixtures?
Generally a 3 bulb ceiling fixture consists of 3 T8 tubes that are 32 watts each. There are typically 3 options that can effectively replace them:
- LED tube – 15 watts, which amounts to a 60% savings
- LED strip kits which take the place of all 3 tubes. These bring a 96 watt fixture down to 33 watts, a 66% savings.
- New LED fixtures, generally between 25 and 32 watts is enough for an 8-9ft ceiling, resulting in a 76% savings
What are my options for LED parking lot poles?
Parking lot poles generally have bulbs ranging from 250 to 400 watts. There is also a transformer in each head which raises the energy usage from 250 to 275 and 400 to 458 watts. These 400w heads can be replaced with three options:
- LED 100 watt Mogul Disc with 5 year warranty – this is often the most cost effective option
- LED 120 watt retrofit plate with a 10 year warranty, custom made for each type of fixture.
- LED 100 to 150 watt new fixtures with 5 to 10 year warranty. This is the most full light of the three options
What are my options for multifamily hallway lights?
Many multifamily unit hallways are underlit using single 13 watt bulbs in a fixture. There are a million solutions to this application, we typically prefer to use our 12 watt flat disk rated for 50,000 hours of use vs 10,000 hours. The maintenance savings alone will pay for the light in a short period of time. The hallway itself will appear more safe, and because it’s a flat disk, tenents won’t rip them off the wall moving large furniture in and out.
What are my LED Lighting options for industrial highbays?
Most facilities have either 6 pack highbays or 400 watt fixtures lighting up their production and warehouse areas. What is the best LED replacement for older lighting?
400w heads can be most easily replaced by these 4 options:
- A simple screw in bulb that uses the current ballast. What this option lacks in efficiency, it makes up for in speed and price of installation.
- A screw in bulb that does not use the ballast. This is a slightly more efficient option that is also fast and affordable.
- A new “UFO” fixture
- A new fixture with a 10% uplight, a 10 year warranty, and is American made. These are the best on the market.
The 6-pack high bays are made up of 6 T8 tubes and it is the most common fixture we see. These 6 packs can be best replaced by one of these three options:
- A simple bulb click-in that uses the current ballast. These are less efficient, but very affordable up front.
- A hardwired LED tube, one of the most cost effective options that comprises the vast majority of our retrofits.
- A new linear LED fixture.
