What is a Recess LED Retrofit Trim?
A Recess LED Retrofit Trim is a type of lighting upgrade designed for recessed fixtures commonly found in commercial and industrial spaces. It is installed into existing recessed housings, allowing you to improve lighting quality without the need for extensive electrical work. This trim incorporates energy-efficient LED technology for enhanced illumination.
What It Replaces
Recess LED Retrofit Trims typically replace outdated lighting fixtures such as fluorescent, HID, or incandescent lamps. Here’s how they compare:
- Fluorescent fixtures (32W) can be replaced with a 12W LED, providing approximately 1,200 lumens.
- HID fixtures (150W) can be replaced with a 15W LED, offering about 1,800 lumens.
- Incandescent bulbs (60W) can be replaced with a 9W LED, yielding around 800 lumens.
Why Utilities Rebate Recess LED Retrofit Trims
Utilities offer rebates on Recess LED Retrofit Trims due to their DLC (DesignLights Consortium) listing. These trims provide substantial energy and maintenance savings. For example, LED lights typically last 25,000 hours compared to 2,000 hours for incandescent bulbs. Businesses that frequently use lighting, such as retail, warehousing, and office spaces, often qualify for these benefits.
