Common questions about commercial LED lighting upgrades, energy savings, and the Refit Lighting Solutions process.
What does Refit Lighting Solutions do?
Refit Lighting Solutions provides commercial and industrial LED lighting upgrades across New Zealand. Their team designs and installs high performance lighting systems that help businesses reduce energy use, improve lighting quality, and minimise long term maintenance.
What industries does Refit Lighting Solutions work with?
Refit Lighting Solutions works across retail, commercial buildings, offices, and industrial environments. Their lighting systems are designed for real working spaces where efficiency, safety, and reliable performance are important.
How does the lighting upgrade process work?
Each project begins with a site walkthrough where the team reviews your existing lighting system and identifies any problem areas. After this assessment, Refit prepares a lighting design and proposal that outlines recommended upgrades, energy savings, and installation planning.
Does Refit provide a lighting audit before recommending upgrades?
Yes. Refit conducts a detailed on site lighting audit to understand how the current system is performing. This includes reviewing fixture types, light levels, energy consumption, system condition, and how well the lighting supports day to day operations.
Can existing light fittings be reused during an upgrade?
In many cases Refit can retrofit advanced LED technology into existing fittings. This allows businesses to modernise their lighting while reducing unnecessary replacement costs and minimising disruption.
How much energy can businesses save with LED lighting upgrades?
Upgrading to modern LED lighting can significantly reduce energy use. Depending on the existing system, lighting energy consumption can often be reduced by around 60 to 80 percent while improving lighting performance across the space.
What warranty does Refit Lighting Solutions provide?
All Refit lighting is backed by a five year zero maintenance assurance covering both parts and labour. If a luminaire fails due to a manufacturing fault under the service contract, it will be repaired or replaced at no cost, including onsite labour.
Does Refit manage the installation process?
Yes. Once a proposal is accepted, Refit manages the planning, sourcing, and installation process using certified electricians to ensure the lighting upgrade is completed efficiently with minimal disruption to your business.
What happens to the old lighting fittings during an upgrade?
Refit provides free removal and disposal of existing fittings and aims to recycle as many components of traditional lighting systems as possible.
Why is lighting design important for commercial spaces?
Lighting design ensures the correct light levels, uniformity, and efficiency for each environment. Factors such as ceiling height, floor layout, task areas, and operating hours are all considered so the lighting supports productivity, safety, and comfort.
