High pressure sodium wall packs are becoming a popular grow light in indoor nurseries and green houses. By giving off a yellow light they are perfect for the second part of the growth phase of a plant- the reproductive phase. In most cases when used for the entire process they can hinder the plants growth, or more specifically produce less than favorable results.
However, in a greenhouse setting where plants are subjected to all the blue light they need naturally, then adding HPS lights to the mixture give the garden just enough well balanced light to grow in a healthy manner. In some cases the HPS light will need to be paired with another light source such as metal halide or LED but this really in only occurs in the colder climes where natural sunlight becomes limited for a certain amount of time each year.
The HPS wall pack can be mounted on any type of standing surface, depending on the size of the area needing to be lit and the size of the building itself. In most cases the fixtures are comprised of an overhang, but wall packs can come into use by the walls and the corners where plants might not incur the needed amount of lumens from the overhead fixtures.
In greenhouse cases, the HPS wall pack makes a great secondary or back up light to go along with whatever bulbs are installed in your overhead fixtures. The high pressure sodium light has other benefits as well such as being easily controlled and giving off heat. In some cases this excess heat can be detrimental to the growth life of a plant but with the use of a light fan installed with the fixtures and a temperature control system throughout the building, this detriment is easily negated.
HPS wall packs are not limited to greenhouse effects. They are popular in the manufacturing and industrial parks as well. They are less popular in these circumstances then say the LED or Metal halide light but are still just as productive and efficient. Speaking of efficiency, they have a longer life than your average incandescent light and they are much brighter. Another benefit is the cut in cost of your electrical bill. For business owners looking to cut back on total overhead cost, an upgrade to HPS wall packs for their lighting systems can be of big help for a long time to come.
Whether you are looking for a grow light for your greenhouse, whether it is for business or personal reasons, the HPS wall pack is something that needs to be considered. It is designed to fit industry standards and protocol. It is energy efficient and durable. It is also cost effective and easy to install. Depending on what you are looking to get out of your lighting system, the HPS might be just the right answer.
