Joint conversion - Teknikhuset

To create more efficient lighting, we are upgrading and switching to LED. In accordance with the new EU directives, which prohibit the import and manufacture of certain fluorescent and halogen lamps, we are taking a step towards a more energy-efficient and sustainable future by switching to modern LED alternatives in the Teknikhuset.The work has now begun and will continue throughout the spring and into the summer of 2026. The lighting replacement has started on floor 4 and will then continue downwards in the property. There will be some noise impact, but it is expected to be relatively short-lived.There will also be some physical impact when the work is underway in the corridor and office/lab. This is being continuously coordinated with those responsible at Umeå University. In the attached file there is a timetable for how the work will progress on floor 4. It will be updated as the project progresses.If you have any questions, please contact Akademiska Hus project manager, Andreas Vikberg, via andreas.vikberg@akademiskahus.se
