Installing wall pack lighting for homes is a great way to light up your garage and bring a little extra security to the place. The problem is that they can be a huge energy sink and be quite costly as far as maintenance goes.
That is unless your wall pack lights use LED lighting. LED lights cut down on energy costs and they’re much cheaper to take care of. The lighting performance you get out of them is also pretty impressive.
Does this have you interested in getting LED wall pack lights installed? Keep reading to find out more about the benefits you’ll receive.
- Energy Savings
The traditional bulbs put in a lot of wall packs use up twice the energy that LED bulbs do. What’s sad is a lot of the energy these traditional bulbs use is wasted because they output it as heat.
Not only that but the light they put off is pointing at the ceiling because they emit light in a 360-degree fashion. LEDs don’t put off near as much heat, the light is distributed evenly so nothing is wasted, and less electricity is used up.
- Cheaper Maintenance Cost
LED lights have a longer lifespan than traditional bulbs do. You won’t have to worry about changing your bulbs for at least 7 years or so. It’s good for the environment because that means they’re fewer bulbs in the landfills and good for you because you won’t have to spend as much on replacement bulbs.
When the bulbs do need to be changed, wall pack lights are a little high up so they require at least a ladder or even a specialist to come in and change them. As you can imagine, this maintenance cost can get expensive if you’re using traditional bulbs.
- Lighting Performance
When it comes to color rendering index, correlated color temperature, and foot candles, LED scores higher than traditional bulbs do. Color rendering index refers to a light’s ability to reveal the actual color of objects.
Correlated color temperature is the color that’s given off by a bulb. Foot candles measure the amount of light that’s coming from the actual light source.
- Increased Safety
While LED lights pack a punch when it comes to lighting a surface, they don’t get hot at all. Since not much heat is coming off them you don’t have to worry about your wall pack lights getting too hot and causing a fire.
