Anderson School District 5 — Westside High School & TL Hanna High School

The Challenge

When Anderson School District Five in Anderson, South Carolina, decided to convert all exterior athletic facility lighting at Westside High School and TL Hanna High School to LED, they needed a partner capable of retrofitting new light fixtures onto existing poles. The district’s top priority for the project was to gain a system that would include advanced control features to produce the best possible visibility for players and fans without increasing energy consumption. Additionally, the new lighting would need to include a comprehensive warranty to help reduce overall maintenance costs at the facilities.

The Solution

District leaders had worked with Musco in the past and knew of the company’s dedication to providing a range of solutions and services to help achieve their goals. They opted for a Total Light Control – TLC for LED™ retrofit. Musco’s factoring-aiming capability helps produce light levels necessary for competition while directing light only onto areas intended to be lit. The Control-Link® controls service enables operation via smartphone and allows staff to reduce the systems’ energy output by dimming the lights, while the Show-Light® entertainment package enhances celebrations at each football field with cutting-edge light shows and special effects. Finally, Musco’s comprehensive warranty covers every part and all labor for the system through the year 2045.
