FAQs
What types of energy-efficient electrical fixtures do you supply in Manchester?
We stock a full range of high-efficiency LED lighting (panels, downlights, battens, floodlights), low-energy emergency fittings, occupancy sensors, dimmable drivers, and smart controls. All products are selected for low power consumption, long life, and compliance with current UK standards, making them ideal for homes, offices, retail, and industrial sites across Manchester.
How much can I save on my electricity bills by switching to LED fixtures?
Savings depend on the wattage you replace and usage hours, but most customers cut lighting energy costs by 50–70 %. For example, replacing a 58 W fluorescent tube with a 22 W LED batten running 3,000 h per year at £0.30 /kWh saves roughly £32 annually per fitting and pays for itself in 12–18 months.
Are your energy-efficient fixtures compliant with UK regulations and incentives?
Yes. Every product meets or exceeds Building Regulations Part L, carries CE/UKCA marking, and conforms to BS EN safety standards. Many items are also listed on the Energy Technology List (ETL), allowing businesses to claim 100 % first-year capital allowances under the UK’s current tax incentives for energy-saving equipment.
Do you offer installation services or recommend qualified electricians in Manchester?
While we are primarily a supplier, we partner with an approved network of NICEIC- and ECA-registered electricians throughout Greater Manchester. We can arrange a free site survey, provide a fixed installation quote, and coordinate delivery so your upgrade is completed safely and in line with local building control requirements.
How long do LED and other energy-efficient fixtures last compared with traditional lighting?
Quality LED fixtures have an L70 life of 50,000–70,000 hours—about 5–7 times longer than fluorescent and up to 20 times longer than incandescent lamps. This reduces maintenance visits, lamp replacements, and associated waste, delivering additional cost savings beyond the energy reduction alone.
Can your energy-efficient fixtures be integrated with smart home or building management systems?
Absolutely. Many of our fittings come with DALI, 1–10 V, Zigbee, or Bluetooth capability, enabling connection to platforms such as Philips Hue, Google Home, or commercial BMS solutions. This allows scheduling, daylight harvesting, and occupancy-based control for further energy optimisation and easier remote management.
