The YMCA of Trumbull County is starting the new year a little brighter as a light replacement program which helps save energy and money while brightening the complex is complete.
Interim YMCA Director Richard Denamen said as part of a green energy program by Ohio Edison, lights were changed in the two gyms, two swimming pool rooms, four locker rooms, wellness center and main lobby.
"The lights are a lot brighter and more energy-efficient. Ohio Edison's goal is to reduce energy consumption," he said.
Denamen said there will be expected savings for the YMCA with electrical bills with a discount provided by Ohio Edison for the installation. He said he is not sure of the exact savings, which should be noticed with the billing in a few months.
During the winter months, the YMCA has been busy with various programs and pool rentals.
The YMCA building is more than 80 years old, and in recent years has undergone renovations which have included in 2008 newly-renovated cardiovascular, wellness center and exercise rooms, which are the most utilized rooms of the YMCA. Prior to that, the last renovation took place in the cardiovascular area in November 1997.
The wellness area received pre-existing paneled walls, new vinyl upholstery for the Nautilus machines, solar energy saving window shades, five flat-screen televisions, improved lighting, added artwork and memorabilia to the walls and rubber flooring.
Banner Engineering has announced a range of energy saving LED work lights of protection categories IP67/IP69K. The robust design allows use in a wide field of application where reliable, bright and even illumination is needed under tough environmental conditions.
The colour temperature lies in daylight range between 5000 and 10 000 Kelvin. The work lights can be connected either via a standardised M12x1-plug connection or directly via open wire ends. The power on/off is carried out either over the connection with the supply voltage or – when there is a constant power supply – over the integrated switch on the LED work light, which is incorporated in some versions.
The lights are available in three different construction groups: as compact spot lights, as line light rails and as square LED lights for flat illuminations. The line light rails are offered in 8 different versions with 3 to 24 LEDs. For more extensive illumination or larger work areas, Banner offers 4 flat lights with 12 to 48 LEDs.
