FAQs
What kinds of lighting upgrades do you provide for homes and businesses in Tullahoma?
We handle everything from simple lamp replacements to full-scale retrofits. Popular options include swapping fluorescent tubes for high-efficiency LED troffers, installing dimmable LED recess cans, adding architectural accent lighting, upgrading exterior security and parking-lot fixtures, and integrating smart controls and occupancy sensors. Whether you own a historic downtown storefront or a suburban home, we tailor a solution that meets your aesthetic goals, lighting levels, and budget.
How much can I expect to save on my energy bill by switching to LED lighting?
LED fixtures use 50–80 % less electricity than comparable incandescent or fluorescent lights. For a typical Tullahoma household, that can translate into $100–$300 in annual savings. Commercial facilities with high burn hours often see payback periods of 1–3 years and ongoing reductions of thousands of dollars per year. LEDs also generate less heat, easing the load on your HVAC system in our warm Tennessee summers, which adds to the overall utility savings.
Are there any rebates or tax incentives available for lighting upgrades in Tennessee?
Yes. TVA’s EnergyRight program frequently offers per-fixture rebates for qualifying LED upgrades, and Tullahoma Utilities Authority participates in those incentives. Businesses can also pursue EPACT 179D deductions on federal taxes for energy-efficient improvements. We stay current on all local, state, and federal programs, calculate your projected incentive, and file the paperwork on your behalf so you receive every possible dollar back.
How long does a typical lighting retrofit take, and will it disrupt my daily operations?
Most residential projects are completed in one day. Small commercial spaces usually take 1–2 days, while large facilities may require phased work over a week to avoid downtime. We offer after-hours and weekend scheduling, use dustless installation techniques, and clean up thoroughly each day. Our goal is to keep your home comfortable and your business running while we improve your lighting.
Can you integrate smart controls such as motion sensors or app-based dimming with the new lights?
Absolutely. Modern LED drivers are compatible with a wide range of control platforms, from simple wall-mounted occupancy sensors to full building-automation systems. We routinely install Wi-Fi or Zigbee/Z-Wave switches, daylight-harvesting sensors, and centralized panels that you can manage from your phone or voice assistant. Smart controls further boost energy savings and give you flexible scene settings for different tasks or moods.
Do I need a permit for lighting upgrades, and will you handle code compliance?
In most cases, yes—Tullahoma and Coffee County require an electrical permit for any fixture replacement that involves wiring modifications. As a licensed and insured electrical contractor, we pull all necessary permits, schedule inspections, and ensure the work meets the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) and local amendments. You receive documentation for your records and peace of mind that the installation is safe and fully compliant.
