            #  LED Lighting Conversion 

Converting a building or a site to LED is one of the few electrical projects that pays for itself on the utility bill. Progressive audits, designs and installs LED conversions for offices, warehouses, retail, multifamily common areas and parking lots.

## Why convert

- **Energy.** LED fixtures typically use half to a quarter of the energy of the fluorescent, metal halide or sodium lighting they replace.
- **Maintenance.** Rated lives measured in tens of thousands of hours mean far fewer lamp changes on lifts and ladders.
- **Light quality.** Better colour rendering, instant-on, no flicker or warm-up, and dimming that legacy lamps cannot do.
- **Controls and rebates.** LED pairs with occupancy and daylight controls, and utility rebates often cover a meaningful share of the project.

## How a conversion project runs

1. **Audit.** We count and identify every fixture, record hours of use, and measure existing light levels.
2. **Design and proposal.** Retrofit kit or new fixture for each type, controls, projected savings, rebates and payback in one document.
3. **Installation.** Scheduled around your operations, area by area, with old lamps and ballasts recycled properly.
4. **Verification.** Light levels checked, controls commissioned, rebate paperwork completed.

## Where we convert

[Offices and clinics](/commercial/electrical/office-lighting), warehouses and manufacturing high bays, retail sales floors, multifamily corridors and stairwells, [parking lots and decks](/commercial/electrical/parking-lot-lighting), and [site and landscape lighting](/commercial/electrical/landscape-lighting).

## Frequently asked questions

Retrofit kits or new fixtures?Kits are cheaper up front and fine for fixtures in good condition; new fixtures give better optics and longer life. The audit tells us which makes sense for each fixture type.



How long is the payback?It depends on hours of use and the lighting being replaced. Sites that run lights all night or all day usually see the fastest payback, and rebates shorten it further. We show the numbers in the proposal.

    I called Progressive because of storm/tree damage, which took out both my power and caused my water main to burst. Progressive could do both. From my initial call to the arrival of the electrician and plumber, I couldn’t have been more pleased. … I would use them again and highly recommend them for your ‘mechanical’ needs.

    We really appreciate the extra time, phone calls to the supplier, and careful reading of the instructions to do the job right. Gilbert expressed his philosophy as ‘doing the job the way he would want it done in his own home.’ Once again, we are most pleased with the professional and courteous service your company provides.
