FAQs
What types of energy-efficient lighting upgrades do you offer in Crab Orchard?
We provide comprehensive lighting solutions that include LED retrofits for existing fixtures, installation of new high-efficiency luminaires, smart lighting controls (occupancy sensors, daylight harvesters, dimmers), and exterior lighting upgrades such as pole lights and wall packs. All products are ENERGY STAR® or DesignLights Consortium® (DLC) certified to maximize energy savings and qualify for available incentives.
How much can I expect to save on my electric bill after an LED lighting upgrade?
Most Crab Orchard customers see lighting energy consumption drop by 50–75 %. For a typical small business spending $300 per month on lighting, that translates to $1,800–$2,700 in annual savings. Residential clients with 40 traditional bulbs can save roughly $250 per year. Exact savings depend on operating hours, current fixture types, and utility rates, which we calculate during your free on-site assessment.
Are there rebates or tax incentives available for lighting upgrades in Crab Orchard?
Yes. Appalachian Power’s Commercial & Industrial Program and TVA’s EnergyRight® Program both offer cash rebates for qualifying LED and control installations. Federal tax incentives, such as the Energy-Efficient Commercial Building Deduction (Section 179D) and the Residential Energy-Efficient Property Credit, may also apply. Our team handles all paperwork and verifies product eligibility to ensure you receive the maximum incentives.
Will new LED fixtures fit my existing sockets and ceiling layouts?
In most cases, yes. We stock a wide range of retrofit lamps and plug-and-play tubes that fit standard E26, GU24, and T8/T12 bases. For recessed cans, troffers, and lay-in grids, we use LED retrofit kits designed for quick swap-outs without altering the ceiling. When fixture replacement is more cost-effective, we recommend slim LED panels or architectural troffers that match your current footprint, minimizing drywall or grid modifications.
How disruptive is the installation process, and how long does it take?
A typical 10,000 sq ft commercial space can be retrofitted in one to two days, often scheduled after hours or on weekends to avoid downtime. Residential upgrades are usually completed in a single morning or afternoon. Our licensed electricians work in clean zones, use drop cloths, and remove all old lamps and ballasts for proper recycling, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily activities.
What maintenance and warranty coverage come with your energy-efficient lighting solutions?
All LED products we install carry manufacturer warranties ranging from 5 to 10 years, covering premature lumen depreciation, driver failure, and workmanship defects. Because LEDs have no filaments or ballasts to replace, routine maintenance is virtually eliminated, reducing ongoing costs. We also offer optional annual system check-ups to verify performance, update control settings, and ensure you continue to achieve optimal energy savings.
