Energy Solar Systems Introduces NEW Energy Efficient T5 Lights

The T5 retrofit light bulb with adapter from Energy Solar Systems is the newest, most efficient lighting solution available and is already saving people thousands of dollars in Europe!

Your lighting represents between 30% and 50% of your total power consumption. We will do a free energy analysis of your current lighting and provide you with a written proposal that will show you the astonishing savings in your electrical utility costs, including your tax incentives, utility rebates, and your estimated ROI.

Both T12 and T8 fluorescent fixtures are considered outdated technology. As of July 2010, by mandate of the Dept. of Energy, the T12 ballast and bulbs can no longer be manufactured. This means that the estimated one billion T12 fixtures currently in use will have to be changed over to either T8 or T5.

Changing from T12 to T8 is an insignificant savings and may not qualify you for the rebates and tax incentives that are available. Changing to the T8 requires that you change not only the bulbs but also the ballast and continues to tie you to the burden of periodically replacing the inefficient ballast. Changing to T5 technology will save as much as 79% on your lighting costs!

Changing to the T5 technology will in almost every case qualify you for the available utility rebates and tax incentives. Using a T5 retrofit adapter is the least expensive, most efficient, and simplest method for you to change from your outdated lighting to the most efficient lighting solution available.

Chick-fil-A testing green concepts in Texas

Source: AJC

Chick-fil-A says its newest restaurant in Texas is a laboratory for environmental innovations that could pop up in other locations.

The 4,617 square-foot restaurant in Fort Worth would be the first Chick-fil-A restaurant designed to the standards of the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program.

Executives at the College Park fast food chain say they want the restaurant to be a testing ground for various sustainability efforts. The company plans to open more than 75 restaurants this year, but says it won't know which sustainability measures will appear in new restaurants until it observes the pilot project in Texas.

The Fort Worth restaurant has low-flow fixtures in restrooms and the kitchen. A cistern the size of a swimming pool will collect rainwater to irrigate plants and landscaping, a step Chick-fil-A says will cut water usage by 40 percent. Skylights and energy-efficient appliances are expected to slice energy usage by 14 percent.

About 20 percent of the restaurant’s building material budget was spent on products with recycled content, and more than half of construction waste was diverted from the landfill. The restaurant is projected to have 30 percent more fresh air than typical buildings.

The restaurant is about 15 percent more expensive to build than a standard unit, said David Farmer, vice president of innovation and service. The added expense should pay off in higher efficiency, he said.

"There's no question, this will change how we build stores going forward," Farmer said.

The company plans to send crews out to hundreds of restaurants to replace lighting and water fixtures with higher-efficiency models. That step could yield thousands of dollars in savings each year for operators, Farmer said. Chick-fil-A also is considering replacing its bleached-white napkins with brown versions that would require less processing and energy to make.

It's GREAT to see a big company like Chick-fil-A making a pledge to conserve! We are really pumped to see them adopt greater efficient lighting policies, like T5 light bulbs that can save up to 79% on lighting costs compared to traditional lighting!

Say Hello To T5 Lighting And Lower Lighting Bills!

T5 Lighting Retrofit Solutions

Increase your light while reducing your total lighting energy consumption by over 50%.

Benefits:
• Retrofit leaves current fixture in place, no need to buy new fixtures.
• No disposal of existing ballast, they are bypassed and abandoned in place.
• No need to shut down large areas to replace fixtures.
• No disturbance of ceiling and potential for release of contaminants into the air.
• 5 Year warranty on retrofit adapter (ballast).
• Financing as low as 3% available for loans up to $70k.
• Lowest Mercury content of all Fluorescents.

Easy installation directions are included. Simply remove your old T12 or T8 bulbs, disconnect the old ballasts, and then reconnect the wires direct to the fluorescent housing end wires.

De-lamping: If your fixtures are 4 light fixtures, you simply remove the (4) current T8 or T12 inefficient bulbs and replace them with (2) T5 bulb/adapters. The T5 bulb installs into the adapter which has its own extremely efficient built-in ballast. Then the adapter with bulb is installed into the existing fixture just as you have installed the current inefficient bulbs you are currently burning.
