Lighting Design and Retrofit Program Overview

Aqualine Resources, Inc. Lighting is a value-added lighting design and retrofit company. We have 10 years of experience in customer focused, technically superior lighting services that are implemented on a national level.

Due to the ever-increasing number of new lighting products and the wide variety of applications, Aqualine believes that the lighting design is the most critical element in the success of a project. The old days of simply removing old magnetic ballasts and T12 lamps, and replacing them with new electronic ballasts and T8 lamps on a one for one basis are gone. New lighting technology, coupled with government regulations, has created an industry that can save a facility 30-50% of the electric utility bill associated with the lighting system.

In order to maximize the savings potential of a facility, we evaluate every fixture--including fluorescent, incandescent, mercury vapor, metal halide, and high-pressure sodium types. Simply standardizing the lighting system from multiple technologies to a few can represent huge savings from a maintenance perspective. Aqualine’s value-added program analyzes all the components of a lighting system and recommends a retrofit that maximizes not only energy savings but operational and maintenance savings as well. Our detailed analysis includes:

Existing foot-candle levels vs. IES standards
Existing utility rate structure
Existing lighting controls
Utility rebate applications
Existing operational and maintenance processes and costs
Condition of existing light fixture diffusers
Lamp and ballast standardization
Maximization of product warranties
Construction feasibility of proposed retrofits
Computer generated layouts and foot-candle output of proposed area redesigns
Customer input about current lighting problem areas and future lighting needs
Hazardous waste issues relating to lamps and ballast

In order to maximize savings and ensure future ease of use, any lighting retrofit should be considered, designed, and implemented by a lighting design professional. Aqualine is one of only a few companies that offer the experience and expertise that is required for a truly successful lighting retrofit.
