In this instance "going green" will not cost you more money. In fact, right away you will start saving up to 63% in the energy costs of running your cases if you retrofit your reach-in frozen food cases with these terrific LED lights. Imagine, you can be environmentally responsible, save energy and improve the appearance of your store displays by "going green". PG&E will even give you a rebate after you install these LED light strips.
"LED" is an acronym for Light Emitting Diode which is a semiconductor device which converts electricity into light. (It's actually magic.) LEDs are better at placing light in a single direction than incandescent or fluorescent bulbs. LEDs emit no heat from the front and very little heat out the back. LEDs emit no undesirable UV rays.
You really should retrofit your frozen reach-in cases. LED lights provide an even illumination on products while the light source is totally concealed from shoppers. You will have no visible bare bulbs that cause glare and distract the shopper's eye from the product as happens now with fluorescent lights. And the quality of the light (CRI) is warmer and makes the product look better.
LEDs last for about 50,000 hours. In other words, if these lights are on for 15 hours a day seven days a week they will last nine years. Your compressor will even use 8% less energy because LED lights put less heat into the case.
I could go on and on and I will a bit. LEDs have no glass parts and no mercury. (Think of landfill.) Glare is eliminated off glass and floors. The light stays on the product and is not on the aisle and floor.
LEDs can be installed in all new Hussmann display cases. This is also an excellent retrofit opportunity for the cases you already have--Hussmann or non-Hussmann reach-in cases.
I, Steve Olsen, work with Bob Shaw and Don Dotson at Sutti Associates and believe you should call one of them to make an appointment to come by your store to discuss the details. They can be reached at 650-343-4244. Call today!
