One App for Lighting Checks in Homes and Workplaces

The situation

Take a two-person electrical business with a mixed diary: domestic callouts, landlord maintenance, office lighting replacements and the occasional small refurbishment. One day is a kitchen, the next is a workspace where staff have complained about the light.

The two environments ask different questions. A home wants to know if the new fittings are an improvement; a workplace wants to know whether an area meets a typical standard and, if not, by how much. Carrying different kit for each is the kind of complication a two-person business can do without.

How Lux Meter Pro fits

For the home, a reading before and after the work is enough, and the card with the photo makes the result easy to show. For the office, a lighting grid across the desks produces an average, minimum and maximum figure and a PDF the manager can keep.

The Lux Meter Pro guides to office, warehouse, school and retail lux levels give the electricians a reference point for the workplace conversation, so the recommendation is anchored to a standard.

Everything, domestic or commercial, lands in the same readings history, with the same PDF export when a record is wanted.

What it changes for the business

• One workflow for two kinds of customer.
• Numbers to accompany every recommendation, in a kitchen or an office.
• No extra equipment for the business to buy, calibrate or carry.
