The LEDtronics Solution: Chicago’s Daley Plaza Fountain
In Chicago’s
bustling downtown, the Daley Plaza serves over 10,000 people each day. The
fountain acts as the decorative centerpiece to the plaza, and is enjoyed by
tourists and natives alike.
The in-ground fountain used standard incandescent bulbs that
frequently burned out. Just one burned out bulb was an expensive issue. The
city was constantly required to spend money on costly maintenance, since the
fountain had to be completely drained every time a bulb needed to be replaced.
Benefits of the PAR36 LED bulb:
•
Three-year lamp warranty
•
Drop-in replacement for 12/14VoltDC and 6VoltDC
PAR36 incandescent lamps
•
Generates minimal heat

Solid-state, high-shock & vibration

•
LED operating life: 50,000+ hours
•

The result was an 85% reduction in energy use and long lasting
LED bulbs that are still in use today.
