How to Choose the Right Light in Lifts？

Shopping centres, office towers, apartment blocks, hotels... To enable barrier-free mobility in multi-storey buildings, there is no way around elevators. Even though most people do not tend to take much notice of the lights in lifts. They are an essential part of our day-to-day lives, The lift lighting often go totally unnoticed. The fact that these lights are used for several hours a day makes choosing the right device with appropriate technical feat

ures and a suitable aesthetic a rather demanding task. Whether it is day or night, the lights in lifts are almost always on which means that energy efficiency is a key consideration.

In addition, luminaires must have the following features:

Longevity of Lights

As there are often many lights in an elevator across multi-story buildings, having lights that last can significantly improve their overall operational cost. The LED lights from Jarstar have 50000hrs life span

Appearance

The equally important, are the appearance of elevator lights. Many of us use elevators every day, and these ceiling lights can easily change up the building ambience and our moods. Lights that are too dim or too bright can also hurt our eyes. Warm and cool lights can also create different atmospheres. We can choose the best colour and colour temperature (measured in degrees of kelvin) for our project. Higher temperatures give a colder, white light while lower temperatures give a warmer light. Therefore, lights should be in the appropriate color and color temperature to ensure an optimal fit for each elevator.

Excellent energy efficiency

LED is a highly energy-efficient lighting technology, it consume 85% less power than incandescent bulbs. Since LEDs use only a fraction of the energy of incandescent bulbs there is a dramatic decrease in electricity costs. The long life span feature of LEDs helps achieve even more energy efficiency. LED lamps have a long life span up to 50,000 hours, which mirrors a stark contrast to an average incandescent bulb having 1,000 hours only.

Eco-friendly

Unlike most conventional fluorescent lighting bulbs contain large amounts of toxic and polluting materials like mercury, LED lights are free of toxic chemicals like mercury or harmful gases.

Radiator

Aluminium is one of the most commonly-used materials for the lights in lifts because it is a good heat conductor. All of JARSTAR' lamps are made of die-casting aluminum housing, a good radiator that allows heat to dissipate quickly and safely from our lighting fixture. However, they can work day and night without any issues at all.

Economical

In the long-run, LED lamps lower the total cost of lighting.

1. Using LED lamps reduces energy cost, as they use 85% less energy than incandescent bulbs. Saving money on electricity bill.

2. Long life span of LEDs tremendously reduces labour cost and maintenance cost of replacing bulbs, especially in commercial applications with massive use of LED lamps.

3.Using LED lamps also reduces cooling cost as they generate very little heat, which creates a cooler environment and less electrical energy for air-conditioning

Easy to install and replace, clean

LED technology delivers all these advantages , In addition, there are many different models with different designs and styles to choose from. There is always something on the market for lift lighting needs, regardless of whether the lift is in a hotel, hospital or office building.

The types of luminaires at Jarstar

We can choose our preferred luminaire from a wide range of  linear lights, ceiling lights, downlights, recessed lights, spotlights and many more. The combined benefits of LED lighting supplied by JARSTAR mean that our physical LED lights have low replacement rates. Even when lights burn out, Facility managers will not have to replace the entire elevator ceiling—just the individual LEDs. This saves resources and lowers the overall operational cost, bringing down the total cost of ownership.

JARSTAR LIGHTING is committed to creating a greener future for ourselves and our planet. There is no better way to demonstrate this than through our custom lighting solutions made from recycled aluminium. These LIGHT can also be further re-recycle.
