FAQs
What types of energy-efficient fixtures do you offer in Birchwood?
We stock a full range of ENERGY STAR®–rated LEDs, high-efficiency linear fixtures, low-voltage accent lights, motion-sensor security lights, and dimmable downlights. All products are selected for high lumen-per-watt performance, low heat output, and long service life, ensuring they meet or exceed Tennessee energy codes.
How much energy can I expect to save by switching to LED fixtures?
Most homeowners and businesses who replace incandescent or halogen lamps with our premium LEDs see energy use for lighting drop by 60–80 %. For example, a 60 W incandescent can be replaced with a 9 W LED of equal brightness, saving about $7–$8 per lamp per year at local utility rates. Over the fixture’s 25-year lifespan, the savings multiply into hundreds of dollars per socket.
Are your fixtures compatible with smart-home or building-automation systems?
Yes. Many of our luminaires include built-in Zigbee, Z-Wave, or Wi-Fi drivers, allowing seamless integration with popular platforms such as Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, and commercial BACnet systems. We also carry retrofit smart switches and dimmers that enable existing lighting circuits to become voice- or app-controlled without rewiring.
Do you provide installation and retrofitting services for existing properties?
Absolutely. Our licensed Birchwood electricians handle everything from fixture selection and layout design to safe removal of old fittings and code-compliant installation of new ones. For commercial projects we offer after-hours change-outs to minimize downtime. Retrofit options include direct-fit LED tubes, ballast-compatible lamps, and full luminaire replacements.
What rebates or incentives are available for energy-efficient lighting upgrades in Birchwood?
Residents served by EPB and TVA can qualify for rebates of up to $0.30 per watt reduced in approved retrofit projects, and small businesses may receive 25–40 % of material costs back through TVA EnergyRight Solutions. Our team helps file all paperwork, submit product specifications, and arrange any required pre- and post-inspections so you receive the maximum incentive.
How long do your LED fixtures last, and what warranties do you provide?
Our commercial-grade LEDs are rated for 50,000–100,000 hours (about 17–34 years at 8 hours per day). All fixtures include a minimum 5-year manufacturer warranty, with many premium lines offering 10-year coverage. Should a unit fail within the warranty period, we handle the replacement or repair at no additional labor cost to Birchwood customers.
