FAQs

What types of energy-saving lighting upgrades do you provide in the Dayton area?

We design and install complete LED retrofit solutions—everything from screw-in lamp replacements to high-bay fixture swaps, exterior pole-lighting conversions, and new architectural troffers. We also integrate smart controls such as occupancy sensors, daylight-harvesting photocells, and networked dimming systems so you get maximum efficiency and flexibility.

How much can I expect to save on my electric bill after an LED upgrade?

Most commercial and residential clients in Dayton see lighting-related energy use drop 50-75 %. For example, changing a 400 W metal-halide high bay to a 150 W LED yields roughly $90–$110 in annual savings per fixture at DP&L’s average $0.12 ⁄ kWh rate. Typical projects pay for themselves in 1–3 years through lower utility bills and reduced maintenance.

Are there rebates or incentives available locally to offset the project cost?

Yes. AES Ohio (formerly DP&L) offers prescriptive and custom rebates for qualifying LED retrofits, controls, and delamping projects. We complete the paperwork and submit the pre-approval on your behalf so the rebate reduces your up-front invoice. Federal tax incentives such as the Energy-Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction (Section 179D) can add additional savings.

What is the installation process and how much downtime should I expect?

After a free on-site audit, we provide a photometric layout, ROI calculation, and project schedule. Small offices or retail spaces are often completed in one evening or weekend. Larger facilities are phased to minimize disruption—work can be done after hours or in unoccupied zones. Our licensed electricians dispose of old lamps and ballasts per EPA guidelines, leaving the space clean and operational each day.

Can you handle both design and electrical work, or do I need separate contractors?

We are a turnkey contractor: our in-house lighting designers create the plan, our NABCEP- and Ohio-licensed electricians perform all wiring and fixture installation, and our project managers handle permitting, code compliance, and recycling. You work with one point of contact from audit to final inspection.

Will the new lighting meet current codes and carry a warranty?

Absolutely. All fixtures and controls we install are UL-listed, DLC Premium-qualified, and meet the 2024 Ohio Building & Electrical Codes, including ASHRAE 90.1 lighting-power-density requirements. Most products carry 5- to 10-year manufacturer warranties, and we include a one-year labor warranty on our workmanship for added peace of mind.
