One aspect of lighting often overlooked during renovations is emergency lighting, according to an article from Facility Maintenance Decisions on the FacilitiesNet website.
Typically, existing emergency lights are in poor condition or were never designed to meet current life safety codes.
When upgrading lighting in a space, managers should include emergency lighting in the review so it is part of the renovation not just a costly change order later.
For instance, installing a small emergency lighting inverter rather than separate standalone batteries or emergency lighting units offers additional cost savings and aesthetic benefit.
Not only is one inverter easier to maintain compared with many scattered batteries, but with added functionality, these inverters can tie into the building automation system (BAS) to communicate alarm conditions.
