Carolina LED Achieves a Brighter Environment for Willow Creek Laundromat

DURHAM, N.C. - Oct. 14, 2013 - PRLog -- Carolina LED, Inc. has recently completed the retrofit lighting with state-of-the-art LED's for Willow Creek Laundromat, a self-service coin laundry serving the Chapel Hill and Carrboro area.   Carolina LED is a Durham, NC based company with the stated goal "to save energy costs for small businesses in Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Chapel Hill, Morrisville, Greensboro & surrounding communities".

The 27 year laundromat owners wanted an immediate improvement in cash flow from energy savings, a return on investment under 2 years, to be more energy efficient (i.e. green) and to create a brighter environment.

Carolina LED tagline is "Achieving lower costs and a brighter environment™".  To these laundromat owners the "brighter environment" is a business value added because they've noticed that patrons tend to revisit more often when it appears brighter in Willow Creek Laundromat.  Cleaner light also creates a feeling of safety for coeds in this college town, (UNC), environment.

“Our goal is to provide a clean, bright environment for out of town visitors, local residents and for those who want the convenience of large capacity washers and driers.  We also offer free wifi for those who bring laptops, tablets or smartphones. ”

Carolina LED did a complete lighting energy review and came up with several options.  The Carolina LED turnkey solutions team has over 120 years combined knowledge and experience in small business to ensure the best solution for each LED lighting retrofit situation. Every small business is unique and requires a unique solution.

Carolina LED provided all the forms and guidance for preapproval of limited time rebates from Duke Energy's Smart $aver Incentive program and federal tax incentives.  In Duke Energy's program, businesses can receive cash for installing high-efficiency lighting. "The use of energy efficient equipment enables your business to improve its bottom line by reducing energy consumption. And Smart $aver incentives help lower the costs associated with upgrades."

The 2,500 square foot space in the Willow Creek Shopping Center is now extremely well lit with 30 2-tube T8 LED systems offering better, white, cleaner light.

Willow Creek Laundromat is located in the Willow Creek Shopping Center, 602 Jones Ferry Rd, Suite N in Carrboro , NC 27510.  (919) 942-0606
