Why RENO for retrofits
Multi-watt/multi-CCT and dual-voltage options reduce truck rolls: one box can serve multiple light levels and colour points, simplifying Canadian service stock. For IAQ-triggered fan or sensor control in bathrooms and back-rooms, pair with Panasonic ventilation.

Use Cases & Pairings
- Budget commercial retrofits (offices, corridors, retail)
- Light industrial upgrades (warehousing and shipping)
- Multi-unit refreshes (MURB common areas)
For occupancy and IAQ-linked control in retrofit spaces, pair with modular sensors from Swidget to automate fans and loads.
Design & Install Tips
Driver/control choice: Use Triac 120 V devices for simple room scenes; choose 0–10 V when you need long runs, uniform dimming, or 347 V service common in Canadian commercial buildings. For recessed grids and accent work, see trim/driver options that complement Comtrend networking where PoE cameras or APs share space.
ESA (Ontario) note: keep all labels and spec sheets with the job file; some AHJs may request proof of cETLus/CSA. Use wet-location/IP-rated SKUs in damp areas (confirm per SKU).
Pricing & Scopes
Provide the required quantities, ceiling type, existing cutouts, control method (Triac vs 0–10 V), and voltage (120/277/347 V). Ask for Canadian lead times and rebate documentation when applicable.
