Project Overview
Equinox West Georgia is a premium fitness and wellness club in downtown Vancouver, offering dedicated fitness studios, strength and cardio areas, spa services, lounge spaces, and other member amenities.
In 2021, Radiance Energy conducted a comprehensive lighting audit and developed an optimized LED retrofit tailored to the facility’s operating requirements and visual standards.
The Challenge
The existing lighting system consumed excessive energy and required frequent maintenance, creating higher operating costs and unnecessary disruption.
Equinox also needed a lighting solution that could support the visual quality expected in a premium fitness environment, where ambiance, visibility, and member comfort are all important parts of the experience.
The Solution
Radiance Energy replaced traditional lighting with ultra-low-flicker LED technology selected to provide brighter, more evenly distributed illumination throughout the facility.
The new system reduced energy consumption and virtually eliminated ongoing lighting maintenance while supporting a cleaner, more modern visual environment. Radiance also offered a zero-interest, no-upfront-cost financing option to support implementation.

- Reduced ongoing maintenance requirements
- Improved visibility and modern ambiance
Lighting That Supports the Member Experience
Fitness environments require lighting that performs across very different spaces, from high-energy training areas to studios, circulation zones, lounges, and recovery spaces.
At Equinox Vancouver, the retrofit combined energy efficiency with improved lighting quality, helping create a brighter and more refined environment while reducing the operational costs associated with the previous system.
