Retail exterior lighting upgrade
RETAIL LIGHTING CASE STUDY
A turnkey LED lighting upgrade that improved visibility and reduced energy use at a Port Charlotte, Florida, retail location.
As part of an exterior refresh, Rooms To Go needed to address outages and insufficient lighting at its Port Charlotte, Florida, location. The goal was to improve visibility for customers and employees while complementing the recently remodeled store.
Federal Heath managed the upgrade from consultation through installation, coordinating the site survey, lighting design, photometric layout, fixture options, payback analysis, and procurement.

A visible transformation after dark—from dim area lighting to a brighter exterior environment.
BEFORE
Outages and insufficient illumination created a need for a coordinated exterior lighting upgrade.
AFTER
Improved illumination around the store, with peripheral light readings increasing by over 300 percent.
THE FEDERAL HEATH APPROACH
A consultation, comprehensive survey, and nighttime inspection identified the areas that needed attention. A photometric site plan guided the lighting layout and fixture selection.
Federal Heath coordinated design, lighting options, payback analysis, procurement, and final installation.
✔ Customer parking and main entrance
✔ Sides and rear of the building
✔ Loading dock
✔ Employee entrance and break area
✔ Employee parking lot and trash corral

The front-of-store design replaced eight existing 400-watt metal-halide fixtures with six new 300-watt LED fixtures, reducing connected fixture wattage while improving lighting output.
The original case study projected simple payback in less than two years and no maintenance costs for the new LED fixtures for at least five years.
