LED Classroom Upgrades
Project Description
The proposed project is a campus-wide upgrade of general assignment classroom incandescent lighting. Classrooms across campus are typically lit with fluorescent lighting, which tends to be energy efficient and low maintenance. In some classrooms, however, there are incandescent fixtures used for supplemental lighting at chalkboards, podiums, and recessed can lights. These incandescent lamps burn out quickly and use much more electricity than comparable LED lamps. The funds to replace these are minimal, and have to compete with other classroom needs such as repairs to floors, ceilings, walls, chalk boards, window air conditioning units, etc. Project Goals: The goal of this project is to provide new LED lamps in all incandescent light fixtures in general assignment classrooms across campus. Desired Outcomes:
1. The new classroom lamps will save electricity;
2. There will be reduced complaints from instructors about burned out lamps;
3. The upgraded lighting will improve visibility of text, etc. which will improve student learning;
4. The new lamps will reduce waste from burned out lamps; and
5. The new, long-lasting LED lamps will save labor in relamping fixtures.
