What is a lighting retrofit project?
A lighting retrofit project revamps existing lighting technology with more energy efficient systems within the same electrical footprint.
A common lighting retrofit project begins with the removal of existing T12 lamps, magnetic ballasts, and/or HID fixtures and replacing them with T8 / T5 lamps, electronic ballasts, and high bay replacement fixtures within an existing facility. The project results in a positive increase in consistency quantity and quality of light. Energy savings are impactful for your business and make a large environmental impact. New lighting will assist in adhering to government regulations, as old T12 and HID technologies are being phased out.
In addition to T12 retrofits, many companies can benefit from LED and exterior lighting retrofits as well. We can work with you to determine exactly where your company can benefit most from an upgrade.

PM Logic® is an easy-to-use platform that provides you with all of these answers and more:
Know your PM Logic® Score
You know that preventative HVAC maintenance is the best way to keep your facilities at the right temperature, but what level and frequency of repairs does your equipment really need? To answer that question, CLS has developed the PM Logic® Score.
The concept is simple – a separate score is created for each roof-top-unit (RTU) based on that specific piece of equipment’s history. Depending on the RTU score, our internal HVAC technical team determines the optimal level and type of repairs needed on the equipment. These focused repair alternatives are then recommended to you.
Knowing your PM Logic® Score is the best way to know what preventative maintenance is right for your equipment and your facility.
