Our Approach
We begin with a lighting needs analysis – assessing the premises, their usage and the existing infrastructure. We then propose a solution that provides both adequate lighting levels and energy savings.
The transition from outdated fluorescent and incandescent fixtures to modern LED solutions is particularly relevant. Such modernisation can reduce electricity consumption for lighting by 50-70%, and LED fixtures last 5-10 times longer. For apartment building property managers and homeowner associations, this means a substantial long-term cost reduction.
For emergency lighting systems, we provide both design in compliance with fire safety requirements and regular maintenance and testing.

FAQ
How much can be saved by switching to LED lighting?
Switching to LED fixtures typically reduces electricity consumption for lighting by 50-70%. For example, in an apartment building with 50 light fixtures in common areas, annual savings can reach EUR 500-1,000. The investment pays back within 1-2 years.
Is emergency lighting mandatory in apartment buildings?
Yes, Latvian regulations require emergency and evacuation lighting in apartment building common areas, especially stairwells and evacuation routes. Emergency lighting must provide a minimum illumination level even during a mains power outage.
How often should lighting maintenance be carried out?
We recommend inspecting lighting systems at least once a year. Emergency lighting systems require monthly functional testing and annual full capacity testing. We offer maintenance contracts with a regular schedule.
