How to Clean Commercial Light Fixtures

The appearance of your commercial space is a direct reflection of your business to potential customers and employees. It's important to showcase your space in the best way possible. While lighting is a vital part of your business, it is often overlooked. Here at Advanced Lighting Service, we know your light fixtures should be regularly maintained and cleaned, to keep the inside of your business looking spic and span. Provided below, are some tips on how to clean your commercial lighting fixtures, by the best commercial electricians in mid-MO.

BEFORE YOU CLEAN: 

Before you start to clean your commercial light fixtures, ensure you are prepared. Get all of your supplies gathered, as well as a ladder to help you safely reach the light. For safety reasons, keep three contact points on the ladder at all times when cleaning. This can help you keep balanced and reduce the chance of falling. Also remember to turn off the light in which you intend to clean. This can help keep you from burning your hands and reduces the chance of an electric shock.

Step 1: Remove the Lens

Remove the light fixture lens and light bulb. This can help give you a close look at what needs to be cleaned. From debris that falls into the light lens to dusting inside the light fixture, it's important to remove any dirt or dust from your lights.

Step 2: Wipe Fixture Off

With a dry cloth, remove any dust or dirt that may gather on the light fixture. If something is stuck on your lighting unit, use a damp cloth to remove the grime. This can help ensure your light fixtures will shine, when they are polished up.

Step 3: Replace Bulbs

While you are up cleaning your light fixtures, it's a good time to replace the bulbs and lens (if needed). This can help prevent a burn out, after just cleaning the fixture, causing you to get your ladder set up and climb up to the fixture again.

You can achieve just that through our lighting tips for the exterior of your business. The best commercial electricians in Mid-MO are here to help make your business environment an employee and consumer friendly location.

Make Sign Visible

Whether you have an illuminated or standard business sign, you want consumers to be able to locate your building easily. Having lights shining on a regular sign can help it catch the eye of passers-by, after dark. Even if your business is not open during the night hours, you can still help consumers find your location with a visible sign.

Lighted Entryway

For safety and ease of navigation, a commercial door should be well-lit. This helps those entering your building know exactly where to go, and adds an element of safety for customers and employees, especially during night-time hours. Adding lights to your entryway increases the safety factor for those around your business exterior.

Incorporate Quality Fixtures

While having lights is important, consider the message you are sending with the fixtures you choose. You will want to invest in astatically appealing fixtures outside your business. A commercial building owner or manager should install light fixtures that look nice and give off a professional look.

Well-Lit Parking Lot

A parking lot with plenty of lighting can help both customers and employees navigate the area, as well as increases safety of those around the building. A consumer will likely feel safer and be more apt to enter your building, if lighting is available in the parking lot area.

Add Ground Lights

Ground lighting is important to help illuminate a walkway up to your door or along the perimeter of the parking lot. Increasing visibility, especially at night can help reduce the risk of a guest falling or tripping on your property. A lit up walkway also helps customers navigate their way to the door.

Incorporate LED

To help save on your electric bill, incorporate LED bulbs into your exterior lighting system. Not only does this help save money for the business owner or manager, LED lights reduce the amount of energy consumed, which is better for the environment.

Maintain Lights

While having the right light fixtures and placement is important, ensuring the bulbs work is imperative to a safe and user friendly lighting system. Our service team offers maintenance checks of exterior lights, to make sure all bulbs are working properly and to replace or repair a faulty light.
