Comparing Tunable LED Systems to Conventional Lighting in Senior Care Centers

06/24/2022 by Lighting Controls Association Leave a Comment

In senior care centers, tunable LED lighting system retrofits can save energy, reduce operating costs, and improve quality of life for occupants when compared to outdated fluorescent systems that are still used in many facilities nationwide. A recent study suggests that LED tunable lighting system retrofits can offer energy savings and reduced costs, along with the possibility of improved quality of life for residents.
