LED Indirect Lighting High Bays

What are LED Indirect Linear High Bays?

LED Lighting Supply Indirect Linear High Bays deliver versatile high-performance lighting with 180-degree adjustable heads that pivot between direct and indirect illumination. When angled upward, these fixtures bounce light off ceilings and walls to create uniform distribution throughout your space. This wall-washing technique eliminates harsh shadows and hotspots common with traditional downward-only fixtures.

The balanced lighting approach significantly reduces glare while maintaining excellent visibility across warehouses, gymnasiums, manufacturing facilities, tennis courts, pickleball courts, and expansive commercial spaces. With 50,000+ hour lifespans and 120-277V universal input, these compact linear fixtures adapt to any building's electrical requirements without additional transformers.

Benefits of LED Indirect Linear High Bays for Commercial and Sports Applications

Adjustable Light Direction for Maximum Flexibility

Our high bay fixtures feature precision-engineered pivot mechanisms that adjust from straight down to completely upward at any angle in between. This versatility allows you to fine-tune lighting based on ceiling height, surface reflectance, and specific task requirements. For spaces with 20-foot+ ceilings, we typically recommend angling fixtures 45-60 degrees upward to maximize indirect reflection while maintaining adequate task lighting.

Substantial Energy Cost Reduction

Expect immediate energy savings of 50-70% compared to traditional metal halide or fluorescent linear systems. Available in 180W to 240W Wattage Adjustable configurations, these fixtures replace 400W+ legacy lighting while delivering superior illumination. Motion sensors and 1-10V dimming capability can push total energy savings beyond 80% in spaces with variable occupancy.

Superior Light Quality and Visual Comfort

High CRI 70+ LED arrays produce consistent, flicker-free illumination with excellent color rendering across the entire lifespan. The indirect lighting design eliminates glare that causes eye strain and fatigue in work environments. Available color temperatures include 4000K and 5000K (color adjustable) to match your space's aesthetic and functional requirements.

Dramatically Lower Maintenance Requirements

With rated lifespans exceeding 50,000 hours, these fixtures eliminate the constant bulb and ballast replacements required by fluorescent systems. Built with premium components and robust aluminum housings, they maintain consistent output for 10+ years of typical commercial operation. This translates to thousands in avoided maintenance labor and replacement parts.

Instant Full-Brightness Operation

Unlike HID systems that require 3-5 minute warm-up periods, our LED fixtures reach full brightness instantly upon activation. Cold weather performance remains consistent, making them reliable for unheated warehouses, outdoor covered areas, and facilities with frequent on/off cycling requirements.

Streamlined Installation Process

Universal 120-277V input voltage eliminates compatibility concerns across different electrical systems. Lightweight aluminum construction and included mounting hardware simplify installation compared to heavy metal halide fixtures. Each unit can replace multiple older fixtures, reducing overall fixture count while improving light distribution and reducing installation time.

Safety and Performance Certifications

All our fixtures carry essential certifications, including DLC Premium, UL Listed, and ETL Listed approvals. These certifications ensure safety, performance, and energy efficiency while qualifying your project for utility rebates and tax incentives. DLC Premium certification guarantees the highest efficiency standards and maximum rebate eligibility.

Warranty and Warranty Support

All our lights come with at least a 5-year warranty, and all warranty support is based in the USA. We take customer support seriously, and helping you with a warranty claim is important to us. Our experienced support team understands the importance of keeping your lighting operational and will work quickly to resolve any warranty issues.
