FAQs
What types of lighting upgrades do you offer for homes and businesses in Greeneville?
We design and install a full range of high-efficiency lighting solutions, including LED fixture replacements, fluorescent-to-LED tube retrofits, smart dimming and occupancy sensor controls, exterior security and parking-lot lighting, architectural accent lighting, and ENERGY STAR–rated ceiling fixtures. Our team evaluates your current system, recommends the right wattage, color temperature, and controls, then handles permitting and installation.
How much money can I expect to save by switching to modern LED lighting?
Most customers in Greeneville see energy-bill reductions of 50–75 % after upgrading from incandescent or T12/T8 fluorescents to LEDs. For example, replacing ten 60-watt bulbs with 9-watt LEDs saves roughly 3,000 kWh over their lifetime—about $360 at today’s TVA electricity rates. Commercial facilities often achieve payback periods of 1–3 years thanks to lower kWh consumption, reduced HVAC load (less heat from lamps), and virtually no maintenance expenses.
Are rebates or tax incentives available for lighting upgrades in Greeneville or the state of Tennessee?
Yes. The TVA EnergyRight program currently offers per-fixture rebates for qualifying LED retrofits, and Greeneville Light & Power participates in several utility-sponsored incentives. In addition, the federal Energy-Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction (Section 179D) can provide tax savings for businesses that cut lighting power density below ASHRAE standards. We handle all paperwork and confirm eligibility before your project begins so you get every available dollar back.
Will upgrading to LED lighting require rewiring or shut down my operations?
In most cases, no major rewiring is needed. We use UL-listed plug-and-play tubes or ballast-compatible drivers when possible, and schedule installations during off-hours or in phases to keep your home or business functioning. For fixtures that do need new drivers or direct-wire conversion, our licensed electricians complete the work quickly, meeting NEC and local Greeneville codes while minimizing downtime.
How long do modern LED fixtures last, and what maintenance is required?
Quality LED lamps are rated for 50,000–100,000 hours—10 to 20 years at typical usage. Unlike fluorescents, LEDs maintain brightness without color shift and contain no fragile filaments or hazardous mercury. Routine maintenance is limited to occasional lens cleaning and checking control settings. We provide a manufacturer warranty (5–10 years) plus an optional service plan if you’d like scheduled inspections.
