ATLANTA - Acuity Brands, Inc. (NYSE:AYI) introduces six additional designs to its line of new generation LED flush mounts from Lithonia Lighting®. The new luminaires are ENERGY STAR® qualified and offer up to 84-percent energy savings over traditional incandescent sources. The LED flush mount luminaires are commercial-rated for 24-hour operation and do not require lamps, simplifying installation and maintenance in residential and light commercial applications.

LED flush mount products are compatible with all standard boxes and come with installation hardware. The fixtures feature a low-profile, transitional design that can mount to ceilings or walls.
