Building managers can create bright, even lighting with less lamps by using reflectors. By bouncing light produced by fixtures, reflectors increase brightness, allowing delamping or removal of lamps.
Apply for Hawaii Energy reflector rebates of $5 to $15 per lamp removed, in addition to lamp replacement rebates for low-wattage T8s and T5s.
Available for existing facility retrofits only.
