FAQs
What types of energy-efficient lighting fixtures do you offer in Cosby?
We supply a full range of ENERGY STAR®–rated LED products, including recessed downlights, under-cabinet strips, track heads, pendant fixtures, wall sconces, outdoor wall packs, and pole-mounted luminaires. All models are designed for high efficacy (90–140 lumens per watt), long life (50,000+ hours L70), and low glare, meeting or exceeding Tennessee’s latest energy code requirements.
How much can I save on my electricity bill by switching to energy-efficient fixtures?
Customers in Cosby typically reduce lighting energy use by 60–80 %. In a 2,000-sq-ft home with fifty 60 W incandescent bulbs burning three hours a day, annual consumption is about 3,300 kWh. Replacing those with 9 W LEDs cuts usage to roughly 495 kWh—an annual savings of ~$370 at $0.13⁄kWh. Commercial facilities see even larger gains because lighting often runs 10–16 hours per day.
Are LED fixtures compatible with my existing wiring and dimmer switches?
Yes—our fixtures operate on standard 120 V circuits, so no rewiring is needed. For dimming, look for the “triac/ELV dimmable” icon on the spec sheet. If your current dimmer is older than 2012 or rated only for incandescent loads, we recommend replacing it with an LED-rated model to prevent flicker and to achieve a dimming range down to 5 %.
Do your energy-efficient fixtures qualify for local or federal rebates?
Most of our products carry ENERGY STAR or DLC Premium certification, making them eligible for TVA’s EnergyRight rebates and the federal 30 % Residential Clean Energy Credit (up to $600 per fixture in 2024). We provide all documentation—spec sheets, certification numbers, and invoices—and can submit the paperwork on your behalf to streamline the reimbursement process.
How do energy-efficient ceiling fans differ from standard models?
Our high-efficiency fans use electronically commutated (EC) motors that draw up to 70 % less power than traditional AC motors. They include integrated LED light kits, reversible blades for summer/winter operation, and smart controls that automatically reduce speed when ambient temperature or occupancy levels drop, further lowering energy use.
What is the installation process and how long does it take?
After a free site assessment, we issue a detailed proposal within 48 hours. Residential retrofits average 10–15 minutes per fixture, so a whole-house upgrade is usually completed in one day with minimal disruption. Commercial projects are scheduled in phases or after hours to avoid downtime. All work is handled by licensed electricians, and each installation is backed by a 5-year workmanship warranty in addition to manufacturer warranties.
