  • Page 40: 10/ Fixture Cleaning

    10/ Fixture Cleaning Regular cleaning is very important for fixture life and performance. Buildup of dust, dirt, smoke particles, fog fluid residues, etc. degrades the fixture’s light output and cooling ability. Cleaning schedules for lighting fixtures vary greatly depending on the operating environment. It is therefore impossible to specify precise cleaning intervals for the fixture.
