FAQs
What kinds of electrical switches do Innovative Solutions Electrical offer for homeowners and businesses in Dunlap?
We stock and install a full range of switch styles, including traditional toggle and rocker switches, dimmers, occupancy/vacancy sensors, weather-resistant outdoor switches, and the latest Wi-Fiâ and Zigbee-enabled smart switches. All products are UL-listed, code-compliant, and selected to match the specific amperage and voltage requirements of your project.
Can smart switches be retrofitted into my existing wiring without major renovation?
In most Dunlap homes built after the 1970s, smart switches can replace standard single-pole or 3-way switches using the existing electrical box. We verify that a neutral wire is present, ensure the box depth is sufficient for the smart module, and then complete the swap with minimal drywall or paint touch-ups. If no neutral is available, we offer approved no-neutral smart models or can run a new neutral conductor where local code allows.
How do dimmer switches and occupancy sensors help reduce my energy bills?
Dimmers let you deliberately lower light levels, cutting wattage and extending lamp life up to 20Ă. Occupancy sensors turn lights on only when movement is detected and off after a user-defined delay, slashing wasted lighting time by 30â60 %. For Dunlap customers, these savings can translate into annual utility bill reductions of 5â10 % depending on lighting load.
Do you provide professional installation and permitting services within the Dunlap area?
Yes. Our licensed electricians handle everything from site assessment and switch selection to installation, testing, and cleanup. When permits are required by the City of Dunlap or Peoria County, we prepare the documentation, schedule inspections, and ensure the work passes on the first visit. Same-day service is usually available for simple switch replacements.
How do you ensure switch upgrades comply with the latest safety codes?
All work follows the 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) and local amendments. We use AFCI/GFCI-protected circuits where mandated, verify proper grounding, tighten terminal torque to manufacturer specifications, and label multi-wire branch circuits. Before leaving, we perform continuity and load tests to confirm safe operation and provide a written inspection report for your records.
What warranty and post-installation support do you offer?
Every switch we install carries the manufacturerâs warrantyâtypically 1 â 5 years for standard devices and up to 10 years for certain smart models. Innovative Solutions Electrical adds a 12-month labor warranty that covers any workmanship defects at no charge. We also offer optional annual maintenance plans that include free firmware updates for smart switches and a preventative safety check on all lighting controls.
