T8 to T5 Retrofit Adapters
Add:admin AddTime:2010-4-21 15:18:56 Read:0 Times

Retrofit to T-5 energy saving fluorescent bulb technology using our exclusive Retrofit Adapters that clip into your existing fixture.  The adapters feature a built-in ballast which in independent testing shows they burn a 28w T5 bulb as low as 17.5 watts.  

Change out your energy guzzling fluorescent T12 bulbs or T8 bulbs without replacing fixtures.

With our new adapter you no longer have to hassle with the labor intensive full fixture replacements.  Even though the more energy saving T5 bulb is too short to fit into an existing fluorescent fixture, our adapters clip into the same place a bulb would go and takes up the gap. Simply click it in and click in the new T5 bulb and start saving energy instantly!

Savings realized in initial purchase price, installation labor costs, without filling landfills needlessly.  Think sustainability!

Why convert your old T12 bulbs to T8 bulbs which are still old technology?  You will only go from 40 watts down to 32 watts which isn't much of an energy savings.  Yes, it may be less in the front end, but we can show you on our energy savings calculator that in less than two years (or less) you will far surpass that cost in energy savings.

Remember, from that point on you will save much more in energy savings every month.

We are often asked about changing out to LED technology. Consider these points:

Upfront cost per tube - very expensive Bluish hue of the light - not very suitable for office settings Lower wattage output with this technology - less lumens of light are given off How much heat is given off? They may diffuse this heat but is it still going up into the fixture?  Ultimately the increased heat increases A/C costs BENEFITS of our T5 Adapter:

LESS WATTAGE USED - BURNS AS LOW AS 17.5 WATTS
1X6 TIMES BRIGHTER
WILL NOT BURN AS HOT - SAVE ON A/C COSTS
EASE OF INSTALLATION
REDUCE CARBON FOOTPRINT
SUSTAINABLE, FIXTURE REMAINS IN PLACE 
 CERTIFICATION POINTS GIVEN
ROI PERIOD FROM 12 MTHS TO 24 MTHS
BULBS STAY BRIGHTER LONGER
LESS MAINTENANCE
THE T5 ADAPTER IS THE BRIDGE BETWEEN T12 OR T8 OLD TECHNOLOGY AND LED TECHNOLOGY WHEN IT COMES OF AGE IN A COMMERCIAL OFFICE SETTING
40 - 70% ENERGY SAVIINGS.  18 - 28 WATTS vs. 32 - 40 Watt OUTPUT
CURRENT CREST FACTOR RATIO <1.5, IS STABLE PROVIDING SMOOTH LUMEN OUTPUT.
NO LAMP FLICKER AND NO BUZZ NOISE.  IT IS HEALTHY FOR THE EYES, BODY AND EVEN FOR USE IN OFFICES OR SCHOOLS.
Our adapters allow users the ability to retrofit from T12 and T8 technology WITHOUT changing your fixture.

TAX CREDITS ARE AVAILABLE:

FEDERAL: 
Energy Tax Deductions are available at $.60 per square foot up to the cost of the entire project x 35% Corporate Tax Rate. (Contact Green'Asics for further details) This is based on the percentage of energy usage saved (a minimum of 40%)

STATE:
In May 2008, Georgia enacted legislation establishing personal and corporate tax credits for renewable energy equipment and certain energy-efficient equipment installed and placed into service.

Tax credits are for maximum of $100,000 for lighting retrofit projects.  In Georgia, the tax credit is equal to 35% of the cost of the system (Including installation), $0.60/square foot for lighting retrofit projects.

UTILITY COMPANIES:
Many local utility companies offer credits for saving on your energy bills.  Contact us for further information or check with your local utility company.

Don't hassle with the costly and labor intensive full-fixture replacements.

Our simple retrofit adapters are so easy to install that any maintenance person can do it.

Why pay good money to install a new T8 ballast and new T8 bulbs AND STILL be spending the same amount in energy costs?

Why pay double the cost to install a new T5 fixture and throw the old ones into our landfills.  Think sustainability!

WHO CAN BENEFIT? 

* Office, School and Health care
* Industrial and Warehouse
* Manufacturing
* Retail and Mega-stores
* Government

These adapters provide perfect pre-heating start (warm/programmed), which preheat lamp filaments before ignition.  This makes ignition voltage low and ensures much longer switch-life (ON/OFF) time than fast-start type.  At least 20,000 times on-off life time guaranteed!
