City Furniture selected three energy-saving LED products from Cooper Lighting, to help achieve its initiative for LEED Silver certification for a new 94,000sq ft superstore in Boca Raton, Florida.
With an overall goal of reducing wattage consumption of the general lighting by half when compared to similar facilities, City Furniture is realizing an energy reduction of nearly 60 percent, and is estimating $55,000 savings in energy costs this year.
City Furniture Facilities and New Construction director Mike Jaroszyk said City Furniture was able to realize such savings at this facility because of a driving factor of specifying 98% of the lighting with LED technology.
To meet its energy efficiency goals, the superstore is controlled by an energy management system that detects when a sufficient amount of natural light is in the space.
Outside the store, the Ventus LED parking lot fixtures were selected for their optical performance and the ability to deliver application-specific uniform illumination.
To provide safety in the back of the building, Falso selected 40W LED Wal-Pak fixtures, over typical 175W metal halide fixtures, which remain on throughout the night.
Designed for pathway illumination and building entrances, the Lumark LED wall-mounted fixtures satisfied City Furniture’s needs for performance and overall energy savings.
