3 Maintenance Tips for your Commercial Sign

Your sign is often the first impression you leave on potential customers. Whether people drive by your location on a regular basis or locate your store via your sign, it is an important marketing tool for your business. Many times a potential customer will make judgments about your business, based on the appearance of your sign. You trusted electrical company in mid-Missouri is here to provide you some tips to help maintain your commercial sign.


1) Clean Sign


No matter what type of sign you have, it is important to keep it clean to showcase your business all year long. Whether it gets a bit moldy in the spring rains or dusty in the fall winds, regularly cleaning your sign helps your commercial space stand out. Don’t forget to clean the inside of the sign as well. A number of particles and debris can build up inside the sign. If your sign lights up, any debris inside the sign will show up, especially at night!

2) Inspect For Damage


Whether you have experience a recent wind or ice storm, it is important to check your sign for damage throughout the year. From a crack in your sign to damage around the base that holds your sign in the air, it is imperative to detect any damage and get it repaired in a timely manner. To prevent your sign from further damage, a quick maintenance repair can help improve the look and stability of your business signage.

3) Check Lights


If you have an illuminated sign, it is vital to the appearance of your sign to ensure your lights are working properly. If your business hours are during typical daylight hours, try to monitor the lights inside your sign after hours. Even if your business is not open after dark, potential customers may still be driving by. To keep your commercial sign representing your business, make sure it is illuminated properly.

Benefits of LED Lighting

The type of light bulbs utilized in a business can have a huge impact on many factors, including the bottom line. If you are a business owner or manager and are interested in upgrading your lighting system, the best commercial electricians in mid-Missouri have provided some benefits of converting to LED lighting. Advanced Lighting Service knows the importance of transitioning your commercial lights to an LED bulb, therefore, we have decided to dedicate our blog to the benefits!

Efficiency


One of the major benefits of an LED light is the energy efficiency it offers. Consuming up to 90% LESS power than a traditional light bulb, your business will see a positive impact on your energy usage! Although the initial cost of an LED bulb is higher than an incandescent or fluorescent bulb, the cost is typically recouped quickly by the lower electric costs needed to illuminate the bulb.

Durability


An LED bulb is far sturdier than alternative bulbs. Because of the durability factor, LED bulbs are able to withstand shock and extreme temperatures. Along with durability, the lifespan of this type of light bulb is far superior that its counterparts. A typical lifespan of an LED is 60,000 hours, compared to the 1,500 hours for an incandescent light bulb.

Safety


Another important benefit of an LED light bulb is the safety feature. This type of light source produces virtually no heat, therefore they are cool to the touch and can be left on for long periods of time without incident. This helps reduce the potential for a burn or chance of fire for your business.

Environment


Made of non-toxic materials, LED’s do not harm the environment, like other light bulbs do. An LED is also recyclable and considered to be earth-friendly!

Illumination


LED light bulbs come in a variety of color bases to choose from. Red, green, blue, and amber are all options for your business. Consider the color light that will be put off to ensure your space is well-illuminated. If you need help selecting the right LED bulb color, one of our electric technicians will be pleased to make a recommendation for your commercial space.

While there are a number of benefits to converting to an LED lighting system, one of these reason may stick out more for your particular business. No matter what your top reason is, you can soon enjoy the benefits of LED lighting in your commercial space! Your trusted commercial electricians in mid-Missouri are here for all of your lighting needs, whether it be converting your lighting system to LED bulbs or repairing an electrical issue.

Check Exterior Lights


It is important to ensure your exterior lights are properly light, especially after hours. Exterior lights help keep your business and those who are on your property after dark, safe.
