Court Lighting at Skokie Park District Tennis Center


Duvon™ normalised an entire public tennis center on a single ProCourt SKU and a unified 5000K spectrum, retiring years of patchwork lighting in one phased weekend.

Skokie Park District operates a high-utilisation public tennis facility with leagues, junior programming, and walk-up open play running in parallel. The previous lighting was inconsistent across courts — some over-lit, others under-lit — because retrofits had been done piecemeal over years.

We normalised the entire centre to a single ProCourt 400W specification with a unified 5000K colour temperature, replacing every fixture in one phased weekend so the centre stayed open through the work week. Each court runs on its own contactor-controlled circuit, allowing the park district to run a court-by-court lights-off schedule overnight.

The finished facility delivers a uniform 50-fc maintained level on every court with 1.3:1 uniformity, instant-on response, and a 62% reduction in operating energy. Park staff report a measurable drop in member complaints about "the dim courts."
