FAQs
What advantages can I expect from upgrading to modern LED lighting in Dandridge?
Upgrading to high-efficiency LED fixtures reduces energy use by up to 70 %, lowers maintenance because lamps last 50,000–100,000 hours, and improves light quality and safety. LEDs also generate less heat, easing the load on your air-conditioning. For businesses, better illumination can boost productivity and retail sales, while homeowners enjoy increased property value and a fresher, more contemporary look.
How much money will I actually save on my electric bill after the upgrade?
Savings vary with usage and the age of your current fixtures, but most Dandridge customers see lighting-related electricity costs drop 50–80 %. For example, replacing twenty 60 W incandescent bulbs with 9 W LEDs that run 5 hours a day can save roughly $240 per year at local utility rates. Commercial projects often recoup their investment in 18-36 months through energy and maintenance savings alone.
Are rebates or incentives available in Dandridge or the state of Tennessee?
Yes. The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and participating local power companies routinely offer prescriptive or custom rebates for qualifying LED retrofits and controls such as occupancy sensors. Our team will identify the best program for your project, complete all paperwork, and apply the rebate directly to your invoice whenever possible, lowering your out-of-pocket cost.
Can new LED fixtures be installed without rewiring my whole building?
In most cases we retrofit existing fixtures or install LED replacements that work with your current wiring, switch legs, and breaker panel. Where older ballasts or dimmer controls are incompatible, we provide low-cost driver or control upgrades. Before any work begins, a licensed electrician performs a free site assessment to verify compatibility and ensure everything meets National Electrical Code (NEC) and local Dandridge ordinances.
How long does the average lighting upgrade project take, and will it disrupt my home or business?
A typical residential project is completed in one day. Small commercial jobs (under 5,000 sq ft) finish in 1-2 nights or weekends to avoid downtime. Larger facilities are scheduled in phases so critical areas remain operational. Our technicians protect furnishings, handle clean-up, and recycle old lamps through certified programs, ensuring minimal mess or disruption.
What kind of warranty and ongoing support do you provide?
All fixtures we install carry a manufacturer’s warranty of 5–10 years. Our labor is covered for a full year, and optional maintenance plans include annual inspections and rapid replacement of any failed components at no additional cost. You will receive complete documentation, warranty registration, and a point-of-contact you can call anytime for service or questions.
