Due to left-behind burn marks from outdated PL13 bulbs, the management as Paseo Villas – a six-story mixed-use building in downtown San Jose, CA – needed to give the building’s hallways a facelift. In addition to fresh coat of paint, Rea Lighting retrofitted 200 wall sconces with TERRALUX LED. The new linear engines have a color temperature of 2700k, which produces a comfortable and warm level of illumination for residents and visitors. “We replaced pin-based CFLs in a sealed decorative fixture while keeping the original aesthetic” says Matthew Sallee of TERRALUX. “This can’t be done with screw-in or plug-in LED lamps, and they didn’t need to send their fixtures to the landfill to do it.”
