FAQs
What are the main benefits of upgrading to smart LED lighting in my Athens home or business?
Smart LED lighting combines high-efficiency LED fixtures with intelligent controls. You gain up to 80 % lower electricity consumption, longer lamp life (usually 25,000–50,000 hours), app-based dimming and colour-temperature control, automated schedules that follow the Greek sunrise/sunset, and integration with security systems. Overall, you reduce energy costs, maintenance work, and carbon footprint while improving comfort and ambiance.
How much can I expect to save on my energy bills after a smart lighting upgrade?
Savings vary by property size and current fittings, but clients in Athens typically cut lighting-related energy costs 50–80 %. For example, replacing 50 halogen downlights (50 W each) with 8-watt smart LEDs can save about €450–€550 per year at current PPC tariffs. Adding motion sensors and daylight harvesting can push annual savings even higher and shorten payback to 12–24 months.
Are your smart lighting systems compatible with voice assistants such as Google Home, Amazon Alexa, or Apple HomeKit?
Yes. We specify luminaires, drivers, and hubs that support open protocols (Zigbee 3.0, Wi-Fi, Thread or Bluetooth Mesh). During installation we link the system to your existing router and guide you through pairing with Google Assistant, Alexa, Siri, or SmartThings, enabling hands-free voice commands like “Hey Google, dim the living-room lights to 40 %.”
How long does a typical lighting retrofit take, and will it disrupt my routine?
Most residential projects are completed in one day; a medium-sized office (200–300 m²) usually takes 1–2 evenings or a weekend. We start with a free survey, create a lighting plan, and prefabricate as much as possible. Installation teams arrive at a scheduled time, use dust-free drilling, and clean up after themselves, so interruption is minimal. Critical circuits are always energised before we leave.
Can you integrate smart lighting with my existing wiring, or will I need a complete electrical overhaul?
In 90 % of cases we retrofit smart lighting onto the existing 230 V wiring. Wireless switches, battery-free kinetic keypads, and in-ceiling relays allow scene control without chasing walls. Only outdated or overloaded circuits may need partial rewiring, which we identify during the safety inspection according to ELOT HD384 standards.
Are there any incentives or subsidies in Greece for energy-efficient lighting upgrades?
Yes. The “Εξοικονομώ” programme and various EU Recovery Fund schemes offer grants covering 40–60 % of eligible costs for residential and commercial energy upgrades, including LED lighting and control systems. We help you gather the required documentation (energy certificate, invoices, CE declarations) and submit the online application to maximise your subsidy.
