"Our contractor sold us on 660 (6) lamp
T8 fixtures. I knew that Westinghouse
was in the business, so I let them value
engineer the project. With their system we were able to save, over ten years, $250,000 in energy and an additional $100,000 by incurring 7,500 less lamp changes than if we had gone with a T8 system. This was a wise investment.”
