The Importance of Having Proper Lighting Services

Proper lighting maintenance not only brings benefits, but is essential to functional operation of any business, ranging from small companies to large corporations. Employing a company to provide lighting services is often overlooked, and many companies do not have a detailed lighting maintenance policy other than replacing bulbs that are burned out. There is much more to keeping your business facilities properly lighted and only skilled professionals can deliver satisfying results.

GMC Solutions offers a wide range of lighting services tailor-made to any kind of business facility (offices, storage houses, workshops, repair shops etc.) in order for the business to thrive. Because improper lighting can lead to decreased worker productivity, unnecessary fatigue and eyestrain, large utility bills (approximately 20 percent of total energy used in commercial buildings accounts for lighting), and most importantly, health and safety hazards. What has to be taken into consideration is not only that lighting has esthetic value, but also that it has a huge impact on the workers and in turn, the business itself. Proper lighting can even save lives in a workplace because employees are able to see the hazards better and avoid them.

Did you know that ineffective lighting system can lead to two very serious illnesses called Seasonal Affective Disorder and Sick Building Syndrome (SBS)? Both of these conditions are caused by bad lighting. If people are affected by these illnesses, they become very lethargic, irritable, and they lack energy to work. All this can be very hazardous to your business and can lead to long periods of affected employees not being able to work.

The problem with non-maintained lighting systems is that its intensity decreases over time due to dust and film on lamps. Illumination can go down up to 50 percent! What GMC do for you in terms of lighting services ranges from cleaning the fixtures, replacing lenses if they start appearing yellow and even replacing your company’s entire lighting system if the old one proves to be costly or ineffective.
