FAQs
What are the main benefits of upgrading the lighting in my Mascot commercial property?
Modernising your lighting delivers several advantages: up to 60–80 % lower electricity consumption, reduced maintenance thanks to long-life LED fittings, improved light levels that boost staff comfort and safety, compliance with current building standards, and a more attractive workspace for clients and tenants. In Mascot’s competitive commercial market these gains translate into lower operating costs and a higher-value asset.
How do energy-efficient LED lighting upgrades cut operating costs?
LED luminaires convert a far greater share of power into visible light, using roughly one-third of the electricity of traditional fluorescent or metal-halide fittings. They also last 50,000–70,000 hours, which means far fewer lamp replacements, lower labour costs and less disruption. When paired with smart controls—such as occupancy sensors and daylight harvesting—businesses in Mascot typically see lighting energy bills drop by 60 % or more.
What does a commercial lighting upgrade project involve?
Our process starts with a free on-site assessment of your current fittings, lux levels and power usage. We then design a compliant solution that meets AS/NZS 1680 standards, prepares load calculations, proposes suitable LED products and provides a cost–benefit analysis. Once approved, we schedule installation outside your peak trading hours, remove and recycle old lamps under EPA guidelines, and commission the new system with certificates of electrical safety and warranty documentation.
Are there government rebates or incentives available in NSW for lighting upgrades?
Yes. Under the NSW Energy Savings Scheme (ESS), eligible businesses can generate Energy Savings Certificates (ESCs) when they replace inefficient lighting with approved high-efficiency products. We handle all paperwork, arrange the accredited certificate provider, and deduct the rebate value directly from your upfront cost, often covering 20–40 % of the project price. Additional tax deductions may apply under the federal Instant Asset Write-Off program.
Will the upgrade disrupt my daily operations?
Minimal disruption is our priority. For offices, retail stores and warehouses in Mascot we stage works after hours or during low-traffic periods, use mobile access equipment with safety barricades, and cordon off small zones so your staff can keep working elsewhere. Power circuits are isolated only in the area being upgraded, and final commissioning tests are performed outside business hours wherever possible.
How quickly will I see a return on investment (ROI)?
Because lighting is often 30–40 % of a commercial property’s energy bill, the savings add up fast. Most Mascot clients recover their outlay in 1–3 years through reduced power and maintenance costs, and the cash-flow benefit is immediate if you finance the project: monthly energy savings typically exceed the finance repayments from day one. After payback, the savings flow straight to your bottom line for the rest of the LED system’s 10-plus-year life.
