ABZ housing estate Allmend Horgen

Solution

If you’re going to renovate, then do it right

The ABZ Allmend housing estate is over 20 years old. The lighting in stair­wells, ancillary rooms and outdoor areas was suffi­cient and was controlled via on/off or twilight switches. However, the lights were often on even when they were no longer needed — which was not in line with the ABZ’s sustain­ability concept.

nevalux AG proposed the following solu­tions to the housing co-oper­ative for the indi­vidual rooms and outdoor areas:
In the stair­wells, the R‑series LED sensor lights from STEINEL show resi­dents the way. The warm white light of the lumi­naires creates a pleasant atmos­phere thanks to various light modes — ambient, main and indirect light:
The RS PRO 5100 SC with motion detector & Blue­tooth was used in the shared adjoining rooms. And the outdoor paths are illu­mi­nated with the extremely resistant Mesoma bollard light and the iFux City Park Pole street light. Both outdoor lumi­naires have built-in light control including motion detection, orien­tation light and neighbour function.
Whether indoors or outdoors: The new lighting — a combi­nation of LED and intel­ligent control — only provides light when the sensors detect people or when the available daylight is insuf­fi­cient. Measure­ments have shown that this saves up to 80% energy. Any questions?
