Light emitting diodes have a wide range of benefits that every property owner, business owner or renter will love. For starters, they consume less energy than other types of lighting systems. This is because over 80 percent of energy used by LEDs is converted to light while only 20 percent goes to waste. With incandescent lamps, only 20 percent of energy consumed is converted to light energy. The rest is lost as heat.
The second benefit of LED lighting systems is that they have a long lifespan. This means that you will have reduced replacement costs. After all, the lights can stay on for over 20,000 hours, which translates to numerous years. In addition to that, LEDs do not have any heavy metals, such as mercury, and are made from materials that are 100% recyclable. This is good news for anyone who is environment conscious.
