Overview
The Energy Star Exit Sign uses energy efficient LEDs to comply with the standards set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). All our LED exit signs are Energy Star rated, but this fixture features reduced energy consumption and increased efficiency. Red fixtures consume 4 watts of electricity and green fixtures consume 2 watts of electricity. Purchasing an Energy Star compliant exit sign is important because it meets code compliance while cutting power costs. For more information about the Energy Star Exit Sign, visit Energy Star's official website.
The Energy Star Exit Sign can be configured as either a single or double-sided fixture. An included backplate is used for both side and wall mounting applications. The included nickel-cadmium battery is powerful enough to provide 90 minutes of emergency illumination when AC power is cut, while the push button battery testing system allows for easy maintenance. This exit sign is UL 924 listed for use in the United States.
