FAQs
What kinds of lighting upgrades do you provide in Tazewell?
We design and install a full range of solutions, including high-efficiency LED retrofit kits, new LED fixtures, smart controls, motion and daylight sensors, exterior security lighting, emergency egress lighting, and specialty architectural luminaires. Our team evaluates your present system and recommends the mix of products that will deliver the greatest energy savings, light quality, and long-term reliability.
How much can I expect to save on my electric bill after an upgrade?
Savings vary by building type and existing equipment, but most Tazewell customers see lighting-related energy use drop 50–75 %. LEDs consume far less power and generate less heat, reducing HVAC load as well. We provide a detailed return-on-investment (ROI) report before any work begins, so you’ll know your projected monthly savings and payback period—typically 1–3 years.
Are there rebates or tax incentives available for lighting upgrades in Tazewell?
Yes. Tazewell businesses and homeowners may qualify for TVA EnergyRight incentives, federal tax deductions under Section 179D, and manufacturer rebates. Our staff stays current on all programs, completes the paperwork, and submits the applications on your behalf—ensuring you receive every dollar of available funding and shortening your ROI timeline.
What is the installation process and how long will it take?
After a free on-site assessment, we create a turnkey proposal that includes product selection, energy calculations, labor, and disposal of old lamps/ballasts. Once approved, most residential projects finish in a day, while small commercial jobs wrap up in 1–3 days. Larger facilities are done in phases to minimize disruption, with work often scheduled after hours or on weekends.
Will my upgraded lighting meet current electrical codes and safety standards?
Absolutely. All fixtures, drivers, and controls we install are UL or ETL listed and comply with the latest National Electrical Code (NEC), International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), and any local Tazewell amendments. We also obtain permits when required and arrange for final inspection, giving you documented proof of compliance and warranty coverage.
Can you retrofit older or historic Tazewell buildings without altering their character?
Yes. We specialize in low-impact retrofits for churches, downtown storefronts, and other heritage structures. We often use filament-style LED lamps and custom-finished housings that preserve the original aesthetic while dramatically reducing energy use. Our electricians route wiring discreetly and avoid drilling into protected surfaces, so the building’s appearance remains intact.
