Episcopal Church of the Annunciation

Hello Everyone

This is my very first attempt at a blog so please excuse me if its subpar. All is well in the "DEEP Green" world as we have been working on our first Church retrofit. The Episcopal Church of the Annunciation on Jamerson Road in Marietta Georgia has had the HPS 200 Watt lights replaced with a set of 16 LED Downlights supplied by Deep Green Lighting Solutions, LLC . The difference is amazing as we removed 12 of the HPS 200 Watt units and replaced them with 16 of the 13.5 Watt led downlight units.

Now the Church has went from using over 2400 watts at all times to using ONLY 216 Watts max consumption. This IS GREEN.... Also they were replacing the HPS lights roughly once per year and the LED lighting installed has a 5 year warranty and a 100,000 hour life expectancy. As I spoke with the bishop he told me that in some cases...."you just have to do whats right" and being GREEN and adding Zero amounts of Mercury is just that. He was dead on correct.

I hope you all have a great work week and that you take the time to appreciate the churches and the people that make my work possible as they are a wonderful group of people to be thinking "big picture" and not thinking solely about themselves and helping me and my company "save Energy and the Planet, One light at a time.
