INDUSTRY NEWS

EPACT 2005 – A federal tax deduction for owners
In order to take advantage of the financial benefits of the EPACT 2005 legislation, Day-Brite|Capri|Omega provides many alternatives to be considered along with our complete range of energy saving products. The main challenge is to deliver a lighting solution that allows owners/users to exceed the minimum ASHRAE density levels (LPWs) required for the tax deduction incentives. This allows for the selection of the appropriate system configuration (lamp/ballast combination) and ensures its successful design execution.

operational characteristics for their application.
