Clarence Buckingham Memorial Fountain- BEI Renovation Project 1995
This life safety and energy efficiency improvement project involved the installation of new lighting fixtures and the retrofitting of existing fluorescent and HID fixtures at 35 schools—close to 2.5 million sf altogether.
The existing T12 fluorescent fixtures were updated with new T8 ballast, sockets, reflectors, and lamps. Fixtures that were beyond repair were replaced with new energy-efficient light fixtures. Work was performed during off-hours and during the summer so that normal operations were not disrupted.
