Lutron’s C-Flex Retrofit Solution: Ballasts Are Out, Fluorescents Are Done, It’s Time to Move On

Starting in 2026, Canada will begin phasing out lamps that contain mercury — including the fluorescent tubes still widely used in commercial, institutional, and public buildings. This regulatory shift only adds to a reality already in place: fluorescent ballasts have not been manufactured for over two years.

That makes the question urgent:

How Can You Maintain Your Lighting Systems Without Replacing Everything?…

Lutron C-Flex: A Simple & Effective Solution

In anticipation of these changes, Lutron developed C-Flex — a retrofit solution that enables a seamless transition to LED lighting without touching your existing infrastructure: wiring, conduits, fixtures, or even your current control system.

How Does It Work?

It’s a straightforward 1:1 replacement. Remove the old ballast, install the supplied LED driver, replace the lamps with the included LEDs — and you’re done!

No demolition. No waste. No compromise on performance or compliance.

And if your system isn’t Lutron? C-Flex is also compatible with many existing control systems, making the transition simple and accessible.

Easy Installation, Full Compliance

Each C-Flex kit includes:

  • A Lutron LED driver (3-wire or EcoSystem)
  • C-Flex LED lamps by Light Efficient Design
  • All required connectors
  • Clear installation instructions
  • A compliance label for the fixture

Good News: In most cases, installation can be performed by on-site electricians — whether in commercial buildings or school facilities — without compromising the integrity of the fixture. (Subject to local code and policy verification.)

Economical. Ecological. Sustainable.

Choosing C-Flex means:

  • An affordable and fast-to-implement solution
  • A drastic reduction in waste (no cables or fixtures to discard)
  • Improved energy efficiency
  • Enhanced light quality
  • A proactive response to upcoming regulations

    Leviton: How to Choose Sensors for Commercial Buildings – From Components to Infrastructure

    For years, sensors in commercial buildings have been treated as simple, interchangeable components—selected late and driven by cost. That approach made sense when their role was limited. It no longer does. Today’s sensors, especially Smart Ceiling Mount Sensors (CMS), play a much larger role in lighting control systems and building automation systems.
