Frequently asked questions

What are the recommended lighting levels for gas station canopies?

The Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) recommends 20-50 foot-candles under gas station canopies to ensure safety, security, and visibility while minimizing glare and energy waste

How do I choose the right LED fixtures for fuel pump areas?

Look for LED canopy fixtures with high CRI (Color Rendering Index), proper beam angles, and uniform light distribution to enhance visibility and security without creating harsh shadows or dark spots. 

What are the best lighting options for the convenience store interior?

Use a combination of ambient, accent, and task lighting with color temperatures around 3500K-4000K to create a bright, inviting atmosphere while ensuring product visibility and customer comfort. 

How can I reduce glare and light pollution at my gas station?

Use fixtures with precise optics, shielded light sources, and proper mounting angles to direct light where needed while complying with Dark Sky and local zoning regulations.

Are there energy efficiency standards or rebates available for gas station lighting?

Yes, many utility companies offer rebates for high-efficiency LED lighting that meets DLC (DesignLights Consortium) or ENERGY STAR® qualifications, reducing both installation costs and long-term energy expenses.

What type of lighting should be used in parking lots and around the perimeter?

LED area lights with motion sensors and dimming controls provide bright, even illumination while enhancing security and reducing energy consumption when traffic is low. 

How can lighting improve security at a gas station and convenience store?

Bright, evenly distributed lighting around fuel pumps, store entrances, and parking areas helps deter crime, enhances surveillance camera visibility, and increases customer safety. 

What color temperature is best for gas station lighting?

A color temperature of 5000K (cool white) is ideal for canopy and exterior lighting, while 3500K-4000K is best for interior spaces to create a comfortable shopping experience. 

How should emergency and backup lighting be integrated?

Install battery-backed LED exit signs, emergency lighting, and backup power solutions to maintain visibility and safety during power outages, ensuring compliance with fire and building codes.
