Published: Wednesday, February 24, 2016 - 15:10 (OEO: Lake Zurich, IL) -- When home-demonstration merchandiser Princess House wanted to improve lighting and decrease energy usage in its 200,000 sq ft warehouse, it turned to OEO Energy Solutions. The solution was to replace the existing 278 360W metal halides with 278 OEO EZ LED 230s. LED lighting is more energy efficient than other lighting, including compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs). And unlike CFLs, there are no recycling concerns. Using OEO’s simple plug-and-play LED lighting, Princess House now saves 43 percent on their electric bills. • Huge energy bills • 43 percent energy savings “This is what I’ve been waiting for,” says Garry Young, lead maintenance technician for Princess House. He had researched many options for two years and had nearly committed to a cumbersome T5 conversion when he saw the ad for OEO. “The difference is night and day. Lighting is now bright and crisp, and gives the warehouse an even, overall lighter appearance. [We] no longer suffer from the dim areas from degradation of metal halides.” Watch the following video to learn how easy it is to save on your company’s energy bills.
