Applications > Parking Garage Lighting

LED lighting is particularly well suited for parking garage applications. Parking garages are lit 24 hours a day, therefore using energy for lighting 24 hours a day. They are also higher maintenance bulbs typically burn out or break due to low ceilings and structural shaking due to vehicles driving in and out of the garage.

LED lighting can provide more uniform lighting in a parking garage and provide a whiter light, enhancing visibility and feelings of safety. A higher color rendering index helps garage users more quickly identify vehicles and proceed in and out with a greater sense of security.

Making Sense

"The City of Indian Wells takes being green seriously. We are known worldwide for our extraordinary landscape and pristine environment, and we make stewardship of these resources a top priority. The recessed LED lighting we have installed throughout our municipal buildings cuts our energy consumption for those lights by 80 percent and is targeted to last for 12 to 25 years, significantly reducing the time and money we spend changing and tossing away bulbs.”

-Larry Spicer, Mayor
Indian Wells
