LumaFit LED Panel Retrofit Kits — The Complete Guide to Upgrading Drop-Ceiling Troffers

Kevin Hernandez

Upgrading outdated fluorescent fixtures doesn’t have to mean tearing out the ceiling. The LumaFit LED Panel Light Retrofit Kits deliver modern efficiency, clean aesthetics, and long-lasting performance—without replacing the entire fixture.

Why Retrofit Instead of Replace

Facility managers and contractors often weigh two options: replace entire troffer fixtures or retrofit what’s already installed. LumaFit retrofit kits make the choice straightforward by offering:

  • Lower installation costs – Reuse the existing housing and wiring.
  • Faster upgrades – Typical installs take minutes per fixture, limiting downtime.
  • Sustainability – Reduce waste by keeping metal housings out of landfills.
  • Modern light quality – Improved uniformity and color consistency across ceiling grids.

Performance That Matches New Fixtures

Although it’s a retrofit, LumaFit delivers the performance you expect from new LED fixtures:

  • Selectable lumen packages across 1×4, 2×2, and 2×4 sizes, up to 9,000 lumens.
  • High efficacy (more light per watt) for measurable energy savings.
  • Field-selectable color temperature: 3500K / 4000K / 5000K.
  • Long L70 lifetime of 50,000+ hours to reduce maintenance cycles.

Choose 3500K, 4000K, or 5000K to match each space.

Fast Retrofit Installation
